Palin cost the ticket precious votes in battleground states.

I live in a battleground state and can tell you that that statement is just not true. The press still needs to destroy Palin because of the 2012 threat. Don't underestimate their ability to twist an exit poll by the type of questions asked.

WHO refused to vote for McCain because of Palin? Noonan, Will, Parker? Loads of people voted for McCain ONLY because Palin was on the ticket. Look at this very thread back before Palin and you'll see people saying they couldn't vote for McCain.

Mccain was the problem. Liberals liked him and still like him cause he's a nice loser.
