No, what McCain is trying to do with Palin is re-frame his candidacy as one of change, reform and "cleaning up Washington." Palin's Alaska rep is as a reformer and she is also someone outside of the Washington establishment. McCain used to be considered a reformer when he was somewhat of a maverick.
