Sentiments for Sarah Palin

[Jamisjockey]

I heard a soundbite....and I think it was Rush....that this isn't about Palin:  Its about control of the GOP.  The centrists led by McCain and his ilk are in a power struggle with the new, young face of conservatism.  Jindal will be next, along with alot of other new young stars in the GOP being raked over the coals.

McCain lost by 6 points due to Sarah Palin. If he'd had Lieberman, then Bob Barr would've gotten into double digits and McCain would've lost by 15 points.

My attitude was summed up by a bumper sticker I saw:

"I'M VOTING FOR SARAH . . . and that old guy she's running with."

Surely "McCain lost by 6 points due to Bush, an overwhelming disadvantage when it came to campaign finance, a hitherto-unprecedented amount of media bias against him and a suspiciously timed economic collapse" is more appropriate to the start of that piece?
