Sarah Palin to Barbara Walters: "I'll take the blame"

In her interview with ABC's Barbara Walters, Sarah Palin offers an explanation of why McCain campaign staffers dumped on her:
Walters: "Towards the end of the campaign, the press reports quoted 'unnamed McCain aides' calling you 'a diva', 'a whack job', 'a narcissist'... Why do you think these people were trying to destroy your reputation?" 

Palin: "For some people this is a business, and if failure in this business is going to reflect poorly on them, they have to pack their own parachutes and protect themselves and their reputations so they wouldn't be blamed. I'll take the blame, though, because I know at the end of the day what the truth is."

  2. Sarah video outtakes up at oprah.com

    And see the stunning numbers.

    20%
    31%

    "Sixteen percent (16%) of all voters are following news about Palin’s book release very closely, and 20% say they are likely to read it. That latter figure includes 31% of Republican voters. (To order the book, Going Rogue, click HERE)." www.rasmussenreports.com wants a commission on that action!
