Meghan McCain has been making lots of enemies within the Republican Party. And Laura Ingraham certainly counts as one of them.

McCain, the 24-year-old daughter of former presidential candidate John McCain, grabbed headlines this week for taking on conservative author Ann Coulter, who McCain described as "offensive."

She kept up the attacks in a discussion with Rachel Maddow, when she intimated that Coulter’s comments make it difficult for the Republicans to court younger voters.

Well, none of this pleases radio host Laura Ingraham, who yesterday employed a Valley-girl voice to describe the 24-year-old McCain as "plus-sized." Here’s the transcript, via Think Progress:

OK, Meghan. Do you think that anyone would be talking to you if you weren’t kind of cute and you weren’t the daughter of John McCain? Or do you just think that they would just think that you were just another Valley girl gone awry?

…

OK, I was really hoping that I was going to get that role in the Real World, but then I realized that, well, they don’t like plus-sized models. They only like the women who look a certain way.

C’mon, Ingraham! McCain’s simply saying what she thinks about the party — no need to take on her weight, which, we think, is perfectly lovely. Now, ladies, can you kiss and make up?

Don't know if she has grown since this photo but that's a nice irish lass methinks.

One hundred ten percent concurrence here.

C’mon, Ingraham! McCain’s simply saying what she thinks about the party — no need to take on her weight, which, we think, is perfectly lovely.

Yet there were no cries when Sarah Palin was called a c**t or b!tch. Nor were there any cries when Bristol Palin was called a whore, tramp and a slut.

She’s not a bad looking girl. If she were to lose about 15 to 20 pounds she’d be extremely good looking.

[rintense]

I think people failed to see that Laura was mocking the left more than anything. Of course, since Baby McCain only has the sense given a Rino... well, if the mock fits, wear it.

[Question_Assumptions]

So fat chicks make the world more exciting?

It's better than the little boy look that dominates the fashion industry and women with ribs showing that look like they've spent a season in a concentration camp.

[Question_Assumptions]

It's just that gay fashion designers have convinced men that it's normal for women to look like teenaged boys. Here's a free clue, guys. Breasts are not made of bone or muscle and maybe if some women would eat a little more, they wouldn't need implants to get them past a training bra.

Yep, Ms McCain is a plus sized a hole. If Meghan doesn’t like that she can diss Luara like she does Ann Coulter.

Problem is, both Ann and Laura don’t have to pretend to be liked.

Then tell Meghan to quit whining and seeking attention for why she can’t get a date. Only Meghan thinks her problem is tied to conservatism.

She has a pretty face, stringy hair, fat thighs, and no moral compass.

Go figure?

[SoCalPol]

Meghan needs to get a regular job like other folks
instead living part of the time in one of her mom’s condo’s here

15 minutes every morning on an uphill manual treadmill, and it would all melt away. or maybe not.

I just got turned on to GIMP. It’s a great program. No need to buy Photoshop now.

[Earthdweller]

LOL! Diversion comedy.

[Yaelle]

I think what happened (correct me if I am wrong, anyone) is that she had a serious man in her life, then she came down with breast cancer. And the guy ran. I remember that being fairly rough on her. However, we have no idea what the full story is.

All the best to her and her daughter though.

[MaggieCarta]

Exactly what is it with the children of politicians?

They are becoming so stupid, it scares me. I can hardly wait until Zero's daughters reach Meghan's age, and start speaking to the press.

I think this all started with the Kennedys.

[NoGrayZone]

LMAO!!!

[LottieDah]

Laura is an adult. If she has a beef with comments made by Meghan McCain say so. Making comments about her weight is just childish.

[mad_as_he$$]

It’s more like 30.
