Vaguley remembered what this was referring to and had to look it up...
6) The myth: Sen. John McCain had an illegitimate black child.
The facts: There was an effort during the 2000 GOP presidential primaries to start a smear campaign against John McCain, who was running a tight race against George W. Bush in South Carolina, saying the Arizona senator had an illegitimate black child.
In an interview with NBC’s “Today Show” last year, political operative Karl Rove, who was said to have been behind the story, shot down the claim. He said he had “nothing to do” with the rumor, adding that it came from “a professor at Bob Jones University” and not the Bush campaign.
McCain and his wife, Cindy, have an adopted daughter from Bangladesh.
Bush ended up winning South Carolina 53% to 42%.

Meghan loves to hold grudges even when they are baseless.
Meghan! How can we miss you when you won’t leave?
What is this Pinniped talking about?
didnt democrats dredge that up again in 2008?
Bush jr. tried to smear McCain’s adopted daughter in S. Carolina.
Never forgot it? Never heard of it!
It’s almost like holding a full glass of beer with a head of foam. Just scrape away the ‘lather’ of Megyn’s compulsive grudge match declarations and what do we really have?
Translation: Is this Miss Meghan’s circuitous way of saying
of saying “I support President Trump’s nominee for SCOTUS?”
She just could not bring herself to openly and clearly voice that support?
To which President Trump might say; “Thanks, Meghan, I guess.
I know that must have been hard for you to say.”
Selective feminine memory. Women have huge memory brain about a lot of cra0 going on, but only mention the stuff making them look the victim or for gainful attention and advancement of their race and progeniture
I’m sick of the Bushes and if they never got anywhere near public office again, it’d be too soon as far as I’m concerned... BUT Meg McCain’s trash talking here is out of bounds. I seriously doubt that Bush 43 or Karl Rove or anyone from their campaign ever smeared the McCains’ adopted kid. NOt their style and no convincing evidence that this ever happened. Bogus accusation.
Meghan McCain. Meghan Markle. What’s the difference? Both are nasty and dumb as dog crap on a hot summer day.
I would not be surprised if John McCain has a couple of illegimate children out there.
The Dems will, as a cultural appropriation or something stupid, but McCain will still back Biden.
Bush didn’t politicize it - the interviewer did by asking the question and Bush answered honestly...
All I know is using the word ‘little” for Meg, or her sister, is a mis-caricaturization.
