      No, not really. He ran on being an “outsider” who wanted to “drain the swamp,” remember?

        McCain and Palin were both elected officials. Both called themselves ‘mavericks.’ Heck, Bush Jr. was the son of the Commander-In-Chief / CIA leader and he played off that he was just a simple cowboy.
