Meghan McCain: I Have No Regrets About Bashing Sarah Palin
Talking Points Memo ^ | 10-20-2014 | Brendan James

Posted on 10/23/2014 1:20:05 AM PDT by Bettyprob

Meghan McCain might change a few words around, but she's not too worried about how her criticisms of Sarah Palin have aged over the past few years.

In an interview with Politico, the TV show host and daughter of Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) stood by her remarks against her father's onetime running mate.

“You know Sarah Palin, some of the stuff I said, again I would maybe term differently,” McCain said. “But I think the criticism I have said of her is fair."

In her 2010 memoir, "Dirty Sexy Politics," McCain wrote that Palin's selection as the vice presidential candidate brought her father's campaign "drama, stress, complications, panic and loads of uncertainty."

"Sarah Palin. She was turning out to be somebody who leaves a wake of confusion and chaos -- to the point of dizziness -- wherever she went," she wrote.

More recently, McCain appeared on the Howard Stern Show and compared Palin to an oddball relative.

“[I]t’s like my crazy aunt or something that people all want to tell me about,” she said.

Meghan McCain, Chelsea Clinton, Robin Farrow, Chris Cuomo, and anyone with the last name "Kennedy' should get together & do their own 'daddy's little favorite' show...

It's NOT merit that matters in a democracy - it's blood line.( the dream of those 'born well')

” McCain wrote that Palin’s selection as the vice presidential candidate brought her father’s campaign “drama, stress, complications, panic and loads of uncertainty.”

What it brought him was a Hail Mary pass that he flubbed by telling that poor woman at the townhall “you have nothing to fear from an Obama Presidency” That’s the moment I knew McStain was throwing the election. Too bad nobody told Palin who was the only good thing about that campaign.

Megan McCain is a vile piece of work. She needs to be shunned and derided for the fool that she is.

Personally, I think it was all over when the economy collapsed in September 2008. That seemed to be the precise moment McCain’s campaign fell apart, going from like maybe a point ahead to consistently trailing by large margins. Not sure if it was because of his weird decision to suspend his campaign, or voters blamed Bush for it and weren’t going to elect another Republican for President that year.

Ironic that she belittles someone who has been a governor of a state, and VPOTUS candidate.

Just what has this cow accomplished beside being a media whore milking her tainted family name?

Because ol' Juan McLame realized he actually had a chance of winning the race with palin as running mate. He wanted the recognition but not the job. Why else did he personally sabotage his campaign with mere weeks to go.
