Sarah Palin's qualifications to be vice president, as well as negative campaign ads that several independent fact-checks had called downright misleading.

The Arizona senator is not the only member of the family who may have sour feelings toward the show. McCain's wife Cindy, after a contentious fall appearance of her own, declared that the co-hosts "picked our bones clean."
Those damn women and their relevancy based questions. I sure ol'John would have been much more comfortable with questions about lapel pins or people he met 30 years ago.
