Meghan McCain: My dad's campaign killed my love life
CNN - Political Ticker ^ | 2009-03-02

Posted on 03/02/2009 2:33:09 PM PST by rabscuttle385

(CNN) — Meghan McCain says that "nothing kills my libido quite like discussing politics" — and that the presidential election "killed my personal life."

"OK, maybe killed is a bit of an exaggeration," she wrote in a blog post for The Daily Beast published Monday. "But it does seem to be on life support. Of all the things people warned would happen post-election, no one ever said anything about how complicated dating would become. Especially if your dad loses the election. There are things that have been difficult, but nothing quite as tough as dating. I fear the election has destroyed my ability and desire to date. Now, I cannot say at any point in my life that I have been very good at dating. But I have become something I used to despise: people who let politics dictate his or her attraction to someone."

She said one fan of her mother, Cindy McCain, recently told her she could be "his Cindy," and asked if she ever wore pearls like her mother did. "Any guy that has a fetish for older women in pantsuits and large pearls obviously only finds my last name attractive about me," she wrote.

I know someone who’s perfect for Meghan. I just have to sign for his release from the mental asylum.

It also killed conservative voter turnout. What a coincidence.

It may have just about killed the country, too. Tell you what. Move to house #6 and chill.

Yep, the kids of Presidents, and candidates, do have problems... unfortunately...

The article said, at the end —

I know that during the election, I was quite visible and campaigned very hard for my father. During that entire time, I did not go on a single date because I was too busy. And too paranoid about getting set up for some sort of weird “gotcha” moment. I just assumed that would all go away once the election was over. Little did I know, dating would become much more complicated and much less fun than it was in college. I am sure I am not being fair to all the men out there, but my recent experiences have left me scarred and wary of dating. At this point, my biggest aphrodisiac is an apathetic attitude toward politics.

So to all the fathers out there: If you want your daughters to be single in her 20s, I can say this—run for president.

LOL...

I wonder if Meghan realizes there are more important things to worry about than her dating problems. Today, the stock market fell almost three hundred points.

What a narcissistic brat.

She should be so lucky as to be as pretty and well-preserved as her Mom when she gets to be her Mom's age. Cindy McCain is a very attractive older woman.

I’m sure her old man could hook her up with somebody willing to date the girls Americans won’t date.

How sad. Her love life depended on the old RINO in Depends.

Get a life Ms.McCain, lose some weight, separate from your old man and live.

It must be really hard to be the child of a man that has no principle other than media adoration.

Come out of the closet darlin’, be a lib or be a conservative. There really is no middle ground, contrary to what the old man has pumped into your foolish head.

A man wants a woman who loves him and rejects one who doesn’t. What a quandry? You just cannot walk across the aisle in a relationship. LOL!

If thou dost marry, I’ll give thee this plague for
thy dowry: be thou as chaste as ice, as pure as
snow, thou shalt not escape calumny. Get thee to a
nunnery, go: farewell. Or, if thou wilt needs
marry, marry a fool; for wise men know well enough
what monsters you make of them. To a nunnery, go,
and quickly too. Farewell.

Go away Meghan. Most of us could care less about your romantic life, and your political life should be over now.
