McCain Tells Leno He's 'Proud' of Palin
Losing Candidate Dismisses Criticism of His Running Mate

BURBANK, Calif., Nov. 11 -- Republican presidential candidate John McCain shrugged off criticism of his running mate, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, saying Tuesday night that he expects her to "play a big role in the future of this country."
The senator from Arizona defended his vice presidential pick on NBC's "Tonight Show" -- his first television interview since losing to Barack Obama a week earlier.
"I'm so proud of her, and I'm very grateful that she agreed to run with me. She inspired people. She still does," McCain said. "And look, I couldn't be happier with Sarah Palin, and she's going back to be a great governor, and I think she will play a big role in the future of this country."
And he rejected the idea that a different vice presidential pick would have changed the outcome of the presidential election.
Asked by host Jay Leno about criticism of Palin by unnamed McCain campaign aides, McCain suggested that such carping amounted to sour grapes from people claiming to be campaign insiders.
"I think I have at least a thousand, quote, 'top advisers,' " he said. " 'A top adviser said' -- people I've never even heard of, much less a, quote, 'top adviser' or a 'high-ranking Republican official.' "
"These things go on in campaigns, and you just have to move on," McCain also said. He did not directly address reports of clothes purchased for Palin by the Republican National Committee, or of aides who reportedly scorned her foreign policy knowledge.
For his part, McCain joked, since the election he has been "sleeping like a baby": "Sleep two hours, wake up and cry. Sleep two hours, wake up and cry," he said to laughter.
And he noted that a number of politicians from his state preceded him in running unsuccessfully for the White House. "Arizona may be the only state in America where mothers don't tell their children that someday they can grow up and be president of the United States," he said.
Leno said that, as he watched the campaign unfold on TV, he "would see sort of two McCains," and he asked the senator to explain why that was. McCain replied: "I think these are tough times, . . . and campaigns are tough. I don't, frankly, think that a lot of people wanted a stand-up comic. They wanted to know how we were going to address the issues. . . . But, you know, you just do the best that you can."
McCain's "Tonight Show" appearance, his 14th, was scheduled to coincide with Veterans Day.

both McCain and Pailin appeared on Saturday Night Live. This seems the only thing I like about them better than Obama and Biden. - Re: 麦坎说笑posted on 11/12/2008

Expecting your president host the talk show? Please move the bar higher, yes you can :). McCanin and Pailin had no other things to do but make some jokes to attract attention before the vote..... - posted on 11/12/2008

Wow, you cannot tolerate even such a minor criticism, even though I said "the ONLY thing..."? :-)
I remember Bill Clinton made some funny video in the white house in some kind of self-mocking tune right before leaving the place after staying there for 8 years. This kind of humor is one of the things I like in US politics, especially in comparison with the Chinese leaders, who don't even smile. - Re: 麦坎说笑posted on 11/12/2008
You are very mean.

Ahh, but we tell our daughters that they can become Supreme Court justices. :-)

You missed the point and the joke ... Sense of humor is the quality we look most in a person in this world. I don't believe IQ but trust HQ. - Re: 麦坎说笑posted on 11/12/2008
Let's have more EQ and HQ in cafe! We don't seem to lack IQ. :-)
I don't know about others, but for me, I come here for nothing else but FUN. - Re: 麦坎说笑posted on 11/12/2008
and the de facto president aka first lady. :-)

I quite like McCain now. I think he has class. I am also ooking forward to seeing Palin rising from ashes. - Re: 麦坎说笑posted on 11/12/2008
I think Palin is smart lady with chrisma, and she can learn.
If she can finish her AK governor with good rating, and run and finish one term in senate, she might have a chance 8-10 years later, the age is also right at that time. - Re: 麦坎说笑posted on 11/13/2008
No way, I wouldn't want my daughter to have such a stressful life. :-)
Previously I was referring to Sandra Day O'Connor, hailed from Arizona.

天老爷!老面,你肯定是给这狐狸精灌了迷魂汤了,她的那些信条,我的天老爷,是给历史开倒车。如果她当选,我肯定离开美国,我看够了这群人的把戏。
她无德无能,最多只配当late night show的主持人。 老面,我,我,我简直无言以对, 怎么能够啊!请你举出她的政治纲领。

迷魂汤?也许吧。;)
我一般不评断别人‘德‘的高低好坏,因为我自己有很多的道德困惑。有些人喜欢站在左右的某一侧,愤怒地声讨鄙视另一侧‘无德‘,套一句圣经说法,都自义的很,在我看来,他们本是一类人。
关于‘能‘,她当过几千人的市长,现在是60多万人的州长,这个州的人对她有评价,这是我指的‘能‘/ smart。至于national level的‘能‘,我认为她现在是新手,假以时日,如果她有心也有机会的话,她会把她的‘能‘,提升到副总统,或总统的水平。当然,有些人火眼金睛,短短的几周看穿了她,我没那个本事。仅凭她来自的党派,信仰,或几个孩子,就看穿她的,也大有人在,如同某些人看到欧巴马的名字,就看到他那颗穆斯林的心。
有些人津津乐道她辨不清非洲,如同某些人乐见Obama认为美国有58个州,我只能说,以此发泄某种情绪,亦无不可,只是个人的情绪是无法讨论的。
至于政治纲领,她是铁杆的共和党,就不用多说了。
