Palin's endorsement will harden Trumps conservative voter support.

Quote:
Sarah Palin was not a liability to John McCain's candidacy because she actually stood for what the conservatives wanted.

One of the big problems facing McCain was the fact that he was too liberal. Most conservative Republican's were totally frustrated with him as the candidate and considered boycotting the election because of his liberal and wishy-washy ways. However, Sarah Palin was a breath of fresh air. She actually had a backbone. She did not pull any punches and stood strongly for what the conservatives and many of the Republicans and independents wanted. McCain was his own worst enemy. McCain did not fight to win. He backed down and apologized continuously. It was a very frustrating election because we had our choice of incompetent (he was elected) and indecisive (he lost.)
