McCain emphasizes ties to Palin

(CNN) – Sen. John McCain is not letting the memory of Sarah Palin's recent visit to Arizona slip away. In fact, McCain is highlighting the former Alaska governor's two campaign stops in a new, fast moving Web video that promotes her support for his Senate re-election bid.
McCain's campaign released a 1 minute and 37 second video Monday of Palin and McCain on the campaign trail – bringing back memories of their 2008 White House bid. Now, McCain is facing a primary challenge from former Rep. J.D. Hayworth, who claims the Arizona senator is not conservative enough.
Having Palin by his side might help McCain dilute some of Hayworth's criticism.
And to emphasize his ties to Palin, McCain has also posted photos and full length videos of her visit.

Yeah we all saw where that got him last time.
John has always used women to his own advantage. Based on his history, I am sure he will throw out Sarah the moment she is of no use in his re-election bid.
She helped him lose the election. She is a world-class liar. She quit her job as governor halfway through her term. She has no credibility. And McCain wants to emphasize his "ties" to her? Poor fool.
John McCain the neocon and Sarah Palin the tea party hijacker, both of you please go away! Ron Paul in 2012 if we make it that far!
Good God...this man IS senile! ...or desperate!
GOP: Domestic Terrorists
Here's an old white guy who will say anything to get elected.
Why are you reporting on every move Sarah Palin makes? She LOST! We want to know about the exciting new health care bill. That affects our daily life, Sarah Palin does not. I know it is easier to report the nonsense she is spouting that it is to actually study the bill and report the facts... but that is what the voters are interested in! If we wanted nonsense, we would be watching FOX... we expect better from CNN!
This man has really lost it. All because he's thinking below the belt. He looks uncomfortable standing behind her because that's the only way his star can shine anymore. He has to catch her soot.
CNN is having them on tonight.
The uitter = traitor. When are
McCain is a "has been." How sad to see this pretend "maverick" trying to align himself with someone who is nothing more than an opportunist.
Methinks the Naval aviator is smitten...
Does John McCain still not understand that he lost any chance of becoming president because of Sarah Palin? If McCain loses, will that finally prove to the Republican hard heads that Sarah Palin is poison?
McCain, the war vet and senior senator has to use a dimwit in a desperate attempt to hold on to his senate seat.
Palin derailed his bid for the presidency but since she is a media darling and almost revered by right wing extremists, he is yet again putting his political future on the lne. I guess he still has not learned that America is more than teabaggers.
Too bad. So sad.
Senator McCain you do know that Sarah is not BRIGHT so quit using her.
Stealing your thunder during the presidential campaign should have made you aware that Pitiful Palin is using you. She is continuing the pattern now as she fakes Helping you while she is TRYING to put a good face on her own campaign. She will use you to benefit herself.
Hey Johnie, you will never be forgotten as the political strategist who brought Sarah Palin to the lime light.
Too bad she doomed your presidential ambitions in the process.
The American electorate is in awe of The Alaskan Air Head.
Dumb and Dumber on Parade! Poor Arizona and Alaska.
Love Sarah, she's doing great! I hope she goes all the way, and John McCain gets reelect. America needs you John, the maverick never give up!
Palin 2012
I enjoyed the rallies, Sarah was magnificent.
Hi john!
You are very old enough to quit the politics! No worry about America and your sarah palin is too naive to be politician. To us, she is like a small kid with tiny brain but want to do big thing.
She will never succeed in life.
Ah sweet Sarah
don't ya smile a mile for me
When I feel cold...I'm balding
And when my balls are small
you can come an hold me
its you
and me
sarah
I'm so sick of John McCain, Sarah Palin, and the whole Tea Party group. John McCain need to give it up, he has been in the White House long enough it's time for him to retire and let some younger person have that seat. We need new blood in the White House and they don't need him to teach them anything they can learn the ropes just like he think he has learned them. I don't know how Arizonians keep voting for him where has he been during their housing crises? Has he helped them get back on their feet any? NO
John McCain is absolutely the most effective Senator working for the good of Americans right now.
Obama, Pelosi and Reid are doing the best they can to make sure Sarah Palin remains a rising political rock star. Americans see now that the ultra liberal philosophy will guide us directly into a depression. The harder they try, the less things work. This liberal experiment is going to be an expensive lesson that America will be paying off for decades.
Oh yes, Mr. McCain.... I used to think that you were one who could be counted on for common sense. Now I think that you're just COMMON. You think that by hitching your wagon to the miserable mistake you made last time will help you? – Nope... You are now tarred by the brush you used to create this pile of crap.
I'm so sick of this shrill and her whine "take our Country back" and "real Americans. Someone needs to take her to task for high fiving the Alaska Secessionist Movement.... It's on video... not hard to prove. She and "first dude" (gag) are no where near "real Americans". Real Americans try to build their country up, not tear it down or divide it.
Ms. Palin is an empty voice shrilling to a crowd of malcontents of illogical thinkers, following her racist, nasty, rant across country, financed by thier social security cheques. Yes, there's that word : social.....
She's a greedy narcisisist who thinks she's found the pot of gold, while all the crap she spews belongs in the pot.
John, you're delusional. The man you once were is gone. How sad you've stooped so low.
Dumb and Dumber. Wasnt anyone paying attention when Jonny said he knew very little of economics. Thats great, lets send him back on up to washington with the rest of them.
May God have mercy on each one of us !
