She speaks like we owe her something. She certainly doesn’t know how to read the American people like Trump does. Anyone who was running mate with No Name deserves nothing from from us.

Sarah Palin wanted to play the political grift game, while also being "good" politician. The McCain campaign wanted an "outsider" who was beholden to them, not to other factions, plus a female couldn't hurt.
As some point, they had to have tried to properly induct her into the "game". It is clear she rejected it. That, and that alone, explains how the media and the establishment treated her.
McCain's problem is, they picked her thinking she was a player, and only later found out she wasn't. She's a "rogue" doncha know. I also think McCain genuinely thought he had a chance to win. Nobody told him that Obama was Bush's boy.
