Sarah Palin Suggests Things Might Have Been Better For GOP Had She Been On Top Of Ticket In ’08
Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin suggested Republicans would have fared better in 2008 had she, not John McCain, been the messenger of change for the GOP. “I wasn’t at the top of the ticket, remember?”
Speaking at the India Today Conclave in New Delhi, Palin was asked why Republicans were unable to defeat Barack Obama in 2008. Palin told Aroon Purie, editor of India Today that Obama was able to cast himself as the change candidate, and that things might have gone differently had she been the GOP’s presidential candidate. Palin did not suggest that she should have been the nominee.
As for 2012, Palin again said she had not decided on a run. “I don’t think there needs to be a rush still to get out there as a declared candidate,” she said.
Palin also slammed journalists for failing to report on candidates’ records and accomplishments, and suggested that Republicans don’t always do a good enough job getting those messages out for themselves:
“Too often, Republicans have the fighting instinct of sheep sometimes,” she said. When it comes to correcting the record, “I will put my foot down.”
