McCain Royally Stuck It To Loyal Running Mate Sarah Palin With Unforgivable Last Insult At Funeral

According to People Magazine, Palin was not sent an invitation and was told through intermediaries to stay away from the ceremony:

“Two names you won’t see on the guest list: Trump and Palin,” says a Capitol Hill source with knowledge of funeral plans for McCain, who died of brain cancer Saturday at age 81.

“Invitations were not extended” to the two political figures, confirms Carla Eudy, a fundraiser who has worked with and been friends with the McCain family for decades.

“A source with knowledge of the funeral arrangements adds that several longtime McCain staffers were also removed from the invite list in recent days by Eudy.”

It’s possible according to People that Palin was not invited at the behest of the McCain family. Ironically, this news comes on the tenth anniversary of the date in 2008 when Palin was announced as McCain’s pick for vice president. It’s odd because Sarah Palin never publically feuded with John McCain and she never criticized him out of respect for him.

“My guess is, it came from Cindy,” says a source close to the McCain family. “She is very protective of John’s memory and legacy. She’s also a grieving widow. I think she wants to get through this as best she can.”

Last weekend when the news broke that McCain had passed away from terminal brain cancer, Palin said:

“Today we lost an American original. Sen. John McCain was a maverick and a fighter, never afraid to stand for his beliefs. John never took the easy path in life — and through sacrifice and suffering, he inspired others to serve something greater than self.

“John McCain was my friend. I will remember the good times. My family and I send prayers for Cindy and the McCain family.”
