I might have to take you up on that...

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Senator John McCain's daughter said on Sunday that Senate nominee Christine O'Donnell of Delaware, a Tea Party favorite, is "seen as a nut job."
"Christine O'Donnell is making a mockery of running for public office," Meghan McCain said of her father's fellow Republican, who recently ran an ad declaring, "I'm not a witch."
Appearing on ABC's "This Week," McCain said O'Donnell "has no real history, no real success in any kind of business."
"And what that sends to my generation is (the message that) one day, you can just wake up and run for Senate, no matter how lack of experience you have," said McCain, 26, author of the new book, "Dirty Sexy Politics."
O'Donnell stunned the Republican establishment in September when she defeated Mike Castle, a former two-term governor and longtime member of the U.S. House of Representatives, to win the Republican U.S. Senate nomination from Delaware.
O'Donnell prevailed with the help of the conservative Tea Party movement and Sarah Palin, the former Alaska governor who was John McCain's running mate in the 2008 White House race.
Meghan McCain, who became known for her online chronicle of daily life on her father's failed presidential campaign, ripped into O'Donnell's candidacy.
"It scares me for a lot of reasons, and I just know in my group of friends, it just turns people off, because she's seen as a nut job," McCain said.
O'Donnell has been the beneficiary of an anti-Washington environment fanned by the Tea Party and voter anger about weak U.S. economy. John McCain swung to the right on a number of issues this year to beat back a conservative challenger in his re-election bid in Arizona.

I hope Karl Rove is appropriately embarrassed that the closest person to his views on Christine O'Donnell is this McCain child.
When two years ago I was following your presidential elections, I sensed this McCain was himself a traitor. The same kind of procedure this man adopted, was used in Brazil to foresee the election of Lula, a communist under disguise. I do think this McCain has been brainwashed and implanted with the idea that he would never be able to fight a communist.
You Americans do not, or will not acknowledge what I say for you are gentle people.
But I do think you have been cheated by this guy, and you must study more the “Revolutionary Mind”.
Revolutionaries are the most destructive people over the face of the world. They are wolves disguised under cheeps skins. This people will kill, lye, corrupt, bribe, torture, distort the language, the habits, the ideas, everything in name of the revolution.
Beware Americans, revolutionaries are evil themselves.
She has NO clue what has made this nation the beacon around the world and most blessed nation in all of recorded history. She thinks of herself as nobility and just like her daddy. She is the ‘nut job’ on display... Just like her daddy she is a media whore thinking she is so very loved by these liberal idiots.
I have nothing against someone born in gold sheets, but stupidity does not choose where to be born at all.
The greatest coincidence, all this kiddos born in gold sheets tend to be stupid, may be because they do not have to do any effort at all to live.
