She kind of has to say this, both for her political and patriotic well-being, doesn't she?
Besides this, as much as Palin is indeed awkward, stilted and lost, I don't consider it disingenuous in the slightest to say that you'd work with someone who you feel is a poor choice because it's for the best to do that rather than continue fighting . . . it's somewhat like staying together for the kids.

i dont think some of these people are going to look at it as boosting Obama's credibility at all...they
are going to look at it as "staying together for the kids...". this is really just going off of what i have experienced since the election, there are some people, not many, who believe what she said and are HEATED because now they feel they dont know who to trust: Palin, who obviously lied to them, or Obama, who had some pretty scary things said about him. the ones i meet are siding with Palin: she is the "safer" choice in their minds... granted, this is a small group of people, i am hoping that as Jan 20th comes, they will focus on becoming educated and move forward.
and i second the fact that she needs someone like Obama...desperately!
