The GOP's identity crisis just got more interesting with the media splash of Meghan McCain, daughter of the senator who did not become president.
Young McCain, who began blogging during her father's presidential campaign, recently made waves at the Daily Beast when she picked a fight with conservative media mavens Ann Coulter and Laura Ingraham.
This is enough sport to make the little dog laugh, to say nothing of the dish and the spoon.
McCain, just 24, is one smart cookie. In a matter of weeks, she has created a brand, presenting herself as a fresh face of her daddy's party and a voice for young conservatives. Strategically speaking, what better way to launch herself than to challenge the reigning diva herself, Miz Coulter?
Madonna, meet Britney....
Moreover, thanks to the "Internets," as our former president liked to say, young people are gaining influence sooner than ever before. One of the smarter, slicker political Web sites, Scoop44, is produced, written and edited by high school and college students across the country. Its editor in chief, Alexander Heffner, is a 19-year-old undergraduate at Harvard.
As Heffner put it in a February interview, he and his colleagues belong to a generation that was galvanized by Barack Obama to take their civic responsibility seriously. Meghan McCain may be simply another manifestation of that call to engagement. And she isn't wrong on the substance of her charges.
The GOP's extreme voices are a turnoff, not just to young people but to millions of Americans who might otherwise be attracted to conservative principles. Who better to point that out than a young maverick named McCain?

That sentence alone reveals Kathleen Parker as a journalist not to be taken seriously.
Meaningless, semi-celebutard, E-Entertainment news. About as relevant to meaningful political discussion as an opinion update from that John Kerry daughter who flashes her tits.
“In a matter of weeks, she has created a brand, presenting herself as a fresh face of her daddy’s party and a voice for young conservatives.”
Meghan doesn’t consider herself a conservative. She calls herself a “Progressive Republican.”
We know what that means.
I’m convinced this little tart fed folks like Parker crap on Palin. (along with you of course Steve0)
It’s always about social conservatism.
Without that it ain’t conservatism.
RHINO? What does the "H" stand for?
Heifer? ;^)
Ms McPiggy is no spokesperson for young conservatives.
The sooner someone sticks an apple in her snout, the better.
All Kathleen Parker threads should be indicated in the title of the posted article.
For example, if a Kathleen Parker column is entitled,
"Why I Still Hate Conservatives and Sarah *^%$ing Palin",the accompanying thread should be entitled
"Why I Still Hate Conservatives and Sarah *^%$ing Palin [PARKER BARF ALERT]".Thank you for your cooperation.
It worked so well with dear old Dad. Why change a winning strategy?
It’s my party-
And I’ll-
Cry if I want to!
Defy who I want to!
Eat pie—one piece won’t do!
You would whine too-If you hadn’t a clue.
Daddy was running for President
Against this way-cool black guy
Now Obama’s a White House resident
And I just whimper and sigh!
Sarah Palin was Daddy’s running mate,
Tho’ I thought she was way too right-wing
Her politics are just what I hate
Now all that I can do is sing….
It’s my party-
And I’ll-
Cry if I want to!
Defy who I want to!
Eat pie—one piece won’t do!
You would whine too-If you hadn’t a clue
The GOP has to grow and evolve,
And try and keep up with the trends.
I’d love to go on about problems I’ll solve-
—But Mommy just bought me a Benz!
I have strong opinions on how things should be
Even though my resume’s slight
Hell, if Daddy had not been a VIP,
I’d be workin’ at Target tonight!
It’s my party-
And I’ll-
Cry if I want to!
Defy who I want to!
Eat pie—one piece won’t do!
You would whine too-If you hadn’t a clue
The GOP needs me to teach it some things-
I really have so much to say
But right now, I’m headed to Burger King
I’ve been craving a Whopper all day!
It’s my party-
And I’ll-
Cry if I want to!
Defy who I want to!
Eat pie—one piece won’t do!
You would whine too-If you hadn’t a clue
Another McCain is thrown under the bus.
Yo, Meghan. Lane Bryant just got a new shipment of designer jeans in. Shouldn’t you be checking them out?
Ugh
I just threw up in my mouth a little.
Little girl, you aren’t smart enough, intelligent enough or educated enough to shine Ann or Laura’s shoes. You know nothing about the Republican party or what a real conservative is. STFU and go away - too many of your kind have already infiltrated the party and we don’t want any more.
Wow - she looks HOT! She SHOULD be in Playboy!
I think that the future of the party is also the history of it. I hope people are going to be returning to the Reagon/Conservative principles that made the party strong and quit supporting Rinos like McCain.
One thing about Obama - He really is a contrast to McCain and really makes Obama moderates realize how bad they've screwed up.
She'll never make it, even with major airbrush work. Playboy models just aren't that stupid.
Have you noticed how she keeps talking about how fat she (on TV) is and why that shouldnt matter? No wonder she cant get dates? Is this the new McCain message?
Just a Judas Goat for the uninformed.
Sarah Palin
