It is no secret that being a Republican isn’t the most hip political stance a person can take right now. President Obama has successfully established himself as the hippest politician around. You know you’re big when Katy Perry wears a dress with your face on it to host the MTV Europe Music Awards. To my fellow Republicans: I’m sorry, I wish I could be more positive about the current “hipness” of our party. But being a Republican is about as edgy as Donny Osmond. Granted, being “hip” is not a reason to join a political party, or a reason to agree with its ideals. But it is a way to get the attention of a generation—or, more specifically, my generation.
To make matters worse, certain individuals continue to perpetuate negative stereotypes about Republicans. Especially Republican women. Who do I feel is the biggest culprit? Ann Coulter. I straight up don’t understand this woman or her popularity. I find her offensive, radical, insulting, and confusing all at the same time. But no matter how much you or I disagree with her, the cult that follows Coulter cannot be denied. She is a New York Times best-selling author and one of the most notable female members of the Republican Party. She was one of the headliners at the recent CPAC conference (but when your competition is a teenager who has a dream about the Republican Party and Stephen Baldwin, it’s not really saying that much).

Or the nut.
That’s why I like her. She really twists the tails of Democrats. She is always good for a laugh.
Salad.
Lots of salad.
RINO’s need salad. Your Dad needs to retire and play shuffleboard.
Well said. She is almost always 3 steps ahead of her opponent.
I LOVE Coulter. She is the greatest.
Moonbat Daughter-of-McNutjob on the other hand is a loser.
MOST Republican women are prettier and brighter than their combat-booted Democrap sisters. And they also have functioning brains.
Ann was on FoxNews about a week ago and dissed Megan for having claimed (on her blog) that being McCain’s daughter was messing up her social life. Ann just said (paraphrase) “Hey, Megan - have you noticed the condition of the country and the economy? We’re not interested in how your father’s loss of the election screwed up your dating...”
Megan is just responding to Ann.
On the positive side - my wife (former liberal) now enjoys Ann Coulter(whom she previously reviled) - so opinions and loyalties do change and Ann does what she does without apology, and that is as it should be.
If this is the Meghan (however she spells it) who is McCain’s daughter, she is an extremely beautiful young woman.
She professed on her blog during the campaign to adore Sarah Palin.
Both she and her father have failed to say a good word about Sarah since they lost. I think he honestly believes that she hurt his campaign.
I don’t believe he has a clue that she was the only thing that energized it at all or had a chance of saving it.
I never liked McCain much and I almost despise him now because of how he treated Sarah.
This Megan girl ... I will say this: she adores her father and what he thinks goes for her as well.
But she is far from homely. No need to say that... most of us would kill to be that pretty.
So would I any day of the week.
Is that an inadvertend condemnation of an entire generation as shallow ?
I get annoyed when so many freeper guys (who probably have trouble getting through a door) call a girl like Megan fat.
The pictures posted were the most unflattering I’ve seen of her and probably chosen for that reason. I could find ten in which she loves like a girl with a nice figure on the full side.
Why can’t we content ourselves with calling her a ditz?
The words “shallow” and “airhead” come to mind. Sounds like high school, where everyone tried to be hip and part of the in crowd.
I wonder how important "hip" and "cool" will be when all these college age kids have to find jobs and Mom and Dad have to cut them off because the money is all gone. Maybe some of them will have to apply for college loans because the 401K's are being wiped out.
"Reality" is about to trump "hip"
Not me...but I have a natural beauty. She, on the other hand has a painted face and bleached hair that makes her look like any other bimbo in Hollywood.
I'm in my fifties, never have dyed my hair and have never worn make-up. My husband would take me over that peroxide blonde any day of the week.
I can picture that.
As for your political analysis, thanks, but no thanks.
Idjit!
I get annoyed with Freepers who feel brave behind a keyboard and never step out into the light.
