Palin "withdrawing" would not hurt McCain at all... What, the Republican base is going to vote for Obama? Not vote at all? Vote Libertarian? No... they will do what they were planning all along and "hold their nose" while voting for a man they have always thought to be barely better than a Democrat.
I work on a right-wing show where the host (who I will not name) was 100% for Romney and right up to the point when Romney conceded felt "McCain would be just as bad as Hillary, if not worse!" Then he jumped right on the bandwagon.
His support from the base is similar to Obama's... If something comes to the surface providing proof that Obama was actually born in Kenya, then he would have to withdraw himself from the ticket. Do we really think that the Democrat party's base wouldn't back Biden (or Hillary, or whoever?)
Democrats will vote for Obama. Republicans will vote for McCain. It's the few voters who actually think that may decide the election.
