What did anyone know of and about Sarah Palin prior to 2008?

And that is just where it would have stayed had she not been picked.

To me McCain didn’t really check her out. He was too arrogant and cynical and probably thought no way The Great McCain would lose to upstart Obama, or even to Clinton.

And then we have had to put up with Palin all this time since.

Nope, not giving a break to McCain on that mess.
