McCain: Palin Could Win It
(Newser) – John McCain thinks his former running mate has a shot at the White House that proved elusive to him.

But she certainly is a major factor and I believe she can be very competitive." Meanwhile, McCain was magnanimous about Rick Santorum's statement that the former POW "doesn't understand how enhanced interrogation works."
