When Palin ran for Governor she was asked, "Are you offended by the phrase 'Under God' in the Pledge of Allegiance? Why or why not?" Her response was:
"Not on your life. If it was good enough for the founding fathers [it's] good enough for me, and I'll fight in defense of our Pledge of Allegiance."
You can't fix stupid.
And Obama said there were 57 states. Did that stupid get fixed? Palin had the highest approval ratings of any governor at the time she was chosen to be McCain's running mate before the leftist media and SNL were done making fun of her for where she came from. The fact that she wasn't an elitist and Harvard grad gave them all the fuel they needed to rip her apart, which also included mocking her marriage and her children.

this is seriously funny! Hoping for the death of half of Americans for "grace and dignity" and "regard for human equality". Raging TDS. Blind to the irony of their own words.
No, she made sure he got less votes than he might’ve gotten if she hadn’t been in the picture.
That said, no Republican could’ve beaten Obama in 2008. Bush’s presidency made sure of that.
Yep, with McCain's help. He backed those bad decisions Bush made. McCain had nobody but himself to blame for losing that run, even though he tried to pin it on Palin in the end. That's just how he rolled.
She was a bad mistake. Like Frankenstein's monster. McCain regretted it and pushed her aside long before his illness. She may have cost him the election. She morphed into a bizarre money-grubbing unhinged ex-candidate who had no accomplishments but was great at self-promotion.
maybe. but for a fact she brought a lot of baggage to the campaign that probably was not known when she was selected (e.g. pregnant teenage daughter, all that hunting eww, lack of 'seasoning' in the lower 48 political atmosphere, etc). IMO he wasn't happy with the choice and she MAY have helped or hurt his chances.
But in later years, I agree with brownbags and Tokinouta. Candidate Trump was a burr under McCain's saddle.

McCain was a hopeless cause no matter who he picked for a running mate.
It doesn't matter - Sarah Palin went back home to Alaska and has attempted to rebuild her life.
She was the the Governor of Alaska and had the highest approval rating of any Governor in the USA when McCain asked her to run with him. She has been gracious, I've never heard her say a bad word about anyone in the McCain family. We should leave her alone -- finally. I don't think I will ever forget the Media sending hords of reporters to paw through her trash, hack her emails and then attempt to get the American public to "find" something ..... which they never did.
It doesn't matter why the McCain family is bitter - they just are. It's OVER.
Having the highest approval rating in a hick welfare state isn`t something to brag about. Anyway, it`s been a while since the Palin family had a backyard brawl so kudos to them. https://www.cnn.com/2014/10/09/polit...awl/index.html
