This thread is missing the point. The podium decor and signs in abundance all said Country First. That there were some McCain/Palin signs from who knows where is really irrelevant. It's obvious the RNC knowingly and with forethought set this up. They will have ample footage of Palin giving stump speeches without the McCain name in prominent display. Editing can eliminate the times she invokes his name. The RNC has all but abandoned McCain and are stockpiling video, picts, sound bites, etc for a future Palin campaign. Forgetting about how I personally feel about either McCain or Palin, I think this is a very crappy way to treat your candidate. I know the RNC was never fond of McCain, but back stabbing like this is pretty sad. The RNC and McCain should have stepped in weeks ago to reign Palin in. It's obvious McCain couldn't and the RNC didn't want to.
Wow, you could have saved a lot of pixels and a few relationships had you just included this in your original post.
I didn't want to lead the jury too much. I wondered if anyone else would reach the same conclusion or give a plausible explanation. It wasn't to stir the pot.
