In a February interview with MTV, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin lavished praise on maverick Republican presidential contender Ron Paul.
She had a few nice things to say about another GOP candidate, Mitt Romney.
But Palin made no mention of John McCain.
Now that McCain is the presumptive Republican presidential candidate, he has selected Palin as his prospective running-mate for vice president.
McCain calls Palin his political "soul-mate."
But, in February, at a point when McCain was closing in on the Republican nomination, it sure sounded like she was sweet on Paul.
The governor, who supported the renegade Republican campaigns of Pat Buchanan in the 1990s (Pat says: "She's a great choice for the base ... She's a Buchananite"), described the anti-war, libertarian-leaning congressman from Texas as "cool."
