Wow, you just gotta
love this guy:
Sen. John McCain said Sunday he would not necessarily support his former running mate if she chose to run for president.
... Speaking to ABC's "This Week," McCain was asked whether Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin could count on his support.
"I can't say something like that. We've got some great other young governors. I think you're going to see the governors assume a greater leadership role in our Republican Party," he said.
He then cited as examples Governors Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota and Jon Huntsman of Utah, both of whom, you'll no doubt be shocked to hear, are het white guys. After a brief dalliance with pseudo-progress, looks like the GOP is back on the straight and narrow! Shocking!
McCain was pressed on why he can't promise support for the woman who, just months ago, he named as the second best person to lead the nation.
"Have no doubt of my admiration and respect for her and my view of her viability, but at this stage, again ... my corpse is still warm, you know?" he replied.
Booey-hooey-hoo.
