dropping bombs on Pakistan. Or an air strike on Iran. Even if Israel did that, it would be with U.S. aid and approval. Also, there’ s a scenario floating around that Joe Biden will drop out of the race in deference to Hillary as Obama’ s vice-presidential running mate replacing Biden. That would really ruin our chances of winning.
PALIN: So tell me what the second option is.
McCAIN: That you drop out of the race. It’ s the honorable thing to do.
PALIN: What are you gonna do, kick me off the island? Let’ s face it, John, if | dropped out, you’ d lose the election for sure, and you know it. You need to show me off during this campaign. |’ m your biggest asset. | wanted to go on my own Palin Talk Express tour, but no, your neocon friends--they discovered me a year before you and | met--and now they’ reso afraid | can’ t function without their guidance. They’ re like a mad beehive, spouting campaign buzz words at me. But | will mever drop out of this race. | would sooner give to the media my tape of our one- night stand in my hotel room at the governors’ conference last February.
McCAIN: If you were to do that, | would release my tape of this whole conversation. So we’ re just canceling each other out with such
tactics. But that’ s what | like about you. You’ re such a feisty lady.
