Conservatives felt betrayed until a little-known governor from Alaska, Sarah Palin came along.

This statement is crap. Sarah Palin did not "come along". She was plucked from obscurity and put on the national stage by JOHN MCCAIN. And after she was picked by JOHN MCCAIN, some conservatives still felt betrayed.

ALWAYS REMEMBER

SARAH WAS PICKED BY JOHN MCCAIN.

That is about the only good thing he has ever done.

" ALWAYS REMEMBER SARAH WAS PICKED BY JOHN MCCAIN."

The truism about blind pigs and truffles comes to mind. Or the one about stopped clocks.

You're not going to get much McCain praise out of me, that much is certain. He's a fine human being--his tenderness towards Mo Udall in that fine man's last days attests to that--but he's a lousy Republican. Let's face it, if he'd been elected, we'd be bellowing in outrage way too often. Not as often as under the Obamanation, but way too often. This is an unfortunate truth.

Alan Keyes was picked by the Illinois machine to run against Obama. Alan Keyes is conservative; does his selection imply anything about the Illinois machine?

George H. W. Bush was picked by Reagan (after Ford turned him down). What does that prove about Reagan or Bush?
