Hence another reason why I don't trust a think Palin says.

It looks like McCain's first pick for VP was Joe Liberman, which set the far right into a tizzy. Instead he went 180 degrees and chose a social conservative...simple to please the BASE.

Bush sure as heck sold us a bill of goods, then flipped on most of it.
