No, I don't think Democrats with national political ambitions would say what she said.

Google it—John Kerry stated he was “personally pro-life” and says he’s a Catholic.

Another thing, she bobs her head too much while talking; annoying to watch.

LOL. She can’t bob her head any more furiously than Ann Coulter does, can she? I need dramamine after watching Ann on TV.

McCain will not run in 2012.

He's already running for 2012.

He’s done, in terms of national politics.

I think and hope you're right

I don't know what the heck he has in mind with the PAC he recently created.

But, he had to “sneak up on us” in 2008 in order to win the nomination.

No way that’d ever happen again.

Were you asleep during the 2004 election? You just don’t want to admit you are wrong. This “personally pro-life” business that Meghan McCain espouses is no more pro-life than John Kerry.

"... nobody that I can say, 'This person totally antithesizes the future of the Republican Party'..."

Can somebody tell me what word she's looking for in her opening sentence. Some synonym for "epitomize" perhaps?

Sure must be a big and important word.

McCain has toys in the attic. He giggles as much as Obama during his interviews. He's delusional. What sensible people like you think doesn't matter to him.

Quit pounding your keyboard and prove your claim.

You don’t want to Google it because you know I’m correct and obviously didn’t follow the 2004 election very closely.

“antithesizes”, if it were a word, would be the opposite of “epitomizes”.

There are many links about it on Google and I’m sure many FReepers that followed the 2004 election remember it as well. It’s fine if you want to believe that Meghan McCain is pro-life. “Personally”, I don’t. She wouldn’t have any problem at all fitting in with the Dems. They would welcome her with open arms.

“She has already said the GOP should be pro gay marriage”

That is overly strident on her part. Many Republicans are Christians, who have very deep to the core, Biblically-based values on this issue.

Many have already done a good bit to accomodate homosexuals that want to live in monogamous relationships with acceptable domestic partnerships or unions. No one is stalking gay people or forcing them to be straight.

Many conservatives are actually pretty tolerant about this issue and the singular point that they will not concede is the word “marriage”, which is between a man and a woman.

Why should they have to go over to Ms. McCain’s point of view? Especially, when they are in the extreme majority.

She should try to convince me to accept the word “marriage” between a man and another man, not paint me as a bigot because I won’t.

I’m willing to listen to her. Then she ought to hear me out.

That is tolerant.

It’s a relatively common phenomenon to see liberal parents raise kids who turn out to be conservative, and vice versa.

And I guess it’s to be expected that if parents have no real beliefs at all, as McCain the Old, where can the kids go but down the same path?

Progressive Republican?

MCCAIN: I consider myself a progressive Republican. I am liberal on social issues. And I think that the party is at a place where social issues shouldn't be the issues that define the party. And I have taken heat, but in fairness to me, I am a different generation than the people that are giving me heat. I'm 24 years old. I'm not in my 40s, I'm not in my 50s and older. And I think there's just such a generation gap, that the people that don't understand me, I actually take it as a compliment, that sort of this new young Republican can come forward and make progress and be successful in the ways that this party has currently failed.

RABS -- I think you should write this supercoolish genY progressive valleytwit a letter. Like, Meghan honey, it's not a generation thing!

I have yet to see this airhead outline exactly what policies she professes other than being pro-gay marriage and the ever-tiresome social liberal. Oh yeah... and she says she is clueless on the economy. Her opinion on foreign policy is probably "Like, you know, everyone should be able to fly to Kakakhstan on mommy's private jet... It's just, like kewl!"
