I think you got to settle down there nancy maybe its possibe that he contacted her and asked her to stay away to prevent a media circus....? I personally believe he was embarrassed to have picked Palin to be his running mate. McCain wanted to be known as the "maverick" the guy who would cross the aisle and work (cave and sell out republicans) to the democrats. The liberal media loved him for it. Conservative Sarah Palin at his funeral would have been a reminder of the "mistake" he made in his choice for VP. I remember years ago a story by a guy nicknamed Joe the Plumber who talked about his experience on the McCain campaign bus in 08. He said he was very impressed with Palin but McCain said some things on the bus that made him want to throw up and he wanted off the bus as soon as he could get off. I always wondered what it was that McCain said but Joe the Plumber never said what it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(tea party gets mocked here) if he were the "maverick" he wouldve gone down that "scary" road of using confrontational antics to get the message across (only if he even believed in it) He wanted "nice and easy" and came off fake, and milqtoast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palin gave him a chance at winning in 08. His poll numbers shot up when he picked her and he took the lead in the polls for a short time until the economy collapsed in late Sept 08 which really was the biggest factor in why he was defeated.

DieHardBrownsFan Posted August 30, 2018 Report Share Posted August 30, 2018 As soon as I heard Palin talk I knew she was a Shmucking idiot. That's why I didn't vote for McCain. Very poor choice for VP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was watching a show Sunday night---he was originally leaning toward Joe Leiberman. Reading between the lines, I got the feeling that he was pressured to choose Palin because the Republican's felt they had to counter the "first black presidential candidate" ticket. Listening to Steve Schmidt and Nicole Wallace, it was painfully obvious that no one on McCain's campaign really knew anything about Palin. It was only when Katie Couric asked her what newspapers she read and she couldn't name one single newspaper that they knew they were hopelessly screwed.

OldBrownsFan Posted August 30, 2018 Report Share Posted August 30, 2018 I don't think whoever McCain picked as VP in 08 would have helped him win. McCain was never a strong republican candidate to start with and once the economy crashed about six weeks before the election it was all over for him.

calfoxwc Posted August 30, 2018 Report Share Posted August 30, 2018 mccain was sleazily leaning to the left after the keating five scandal. the left doesn't care about scandals of their own. and, lefty mccain picked Palin to get the conservative vote, because there were plenty of people who didn't trust him to do the right thing, after saying the right thing. and the hundred thousand bucks Soros gave to mccain's foundation was the icing on the cake. turns out, mccain was very much like a double agent, more leaning to the left.

Canton Dawg Posted September 1, 2018 Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 I love this Chuck Woolery tweet. . . All in the same church today. Obama, Bush, Clinton. Trump has accomplished more in less than two years than any of you could or did, and without much help from your holier than thou establishment.
