If you watch the movie 'Game Change' which centers on McCain/Palin 2008, they wanted a running mate to excite the base and Gov. Palin was more conservative than Sen. Murkowski.

However, McCain didn’t win the election so the talk of him getting someone more conservative as his running mate didn’t help him win. Same with Mitt Romney choosing Paul Ryan as his running mate in 2012. Only Mike Pence actually United the conservative base for Republicans in 2016 when Trump selected him as his running mate then.
Hypothetically though, Murkowski would have not caused divisiveness the way Palin did.
