(CNN) - Meghan McCain- who has been known for her outspoken criticisms of the Republican Party, "did not soften her voice Tuesday calling Sen. Arlen Specters party switch a "selfish choice."

Recognizing that it had been a hard day for the Republican Party, McCain offered some encouraging words " I am still a believer in this party! I have faith we can bring this back, who is with me?!?" she tweeted.

Sen. Arlen Specter might have left the GOP, but Meghan McCain isn't going anywhere. "In my Republican Party there is room for everyone! There is no need for an admissions test to be a member, lets be more inclusive!" she wrote.

Meghan McCain, the Scarecrow of the Republican Party.

McCain and Specter vote together almost 95% of the time. Explain to me again how either one of them is (or was) actually a Republican.

Hey fatty Megan, Benedict Arlen is calling to you.

>> Meghan should be forced out a la Specter.

Due to the sheer bulk of the turd, he body politic’s sphincter is gonna be stretched to the max when Meghan is “forced out”.

But... will it ever feel GOOD.

Didja read the comments on the CNN site? No WONDER the country is in trouble!

Just like what Ron Reagan represents to MSNBC as the token GOP-traitor, MM has taken her place as the token GOP-traitor for CNN.

LOL

She’s at least a 220 couric dump.

Look at what the Republican party stands for these days, and there’s your answer.

McCain and Specter are NOT conservative.

However, a strong argument could be made that they’re mainstream Republican.

The (R) party is lost and confused. Big time.

"In my Republican Party there is room for everyone! There is no need for an admissions test to be a member, lets be more inclusive!" she wrote.

And that is why both McCains (as well as the other RINOs) are extremely dangerous. If a political party's members don't agree on anything, or agree on very little, then they will split into factions, with one having the upper hand at any given time, and the party's purpose will rapidly devolve into naught but seeking and maintaining its own power.

Explain to me how they're voting together "95% of the time" when McCain has an conservative rating of 82% from the ACU and Specter has a conservative rating of 42% from the ACU. That's a 40-point difference. I would say they've probably agreed around half the time. There are certainly numerous issues where they've been on opposite sides.

[SWAMPSNIPER]

Sorry, there isn’t room for “anyone”! Republicans are supposed to believe in, and stand for, certain principles. Lacking principles, we are just another bunch of democrats!

[Chode]

who cares what the little attention whore says...

[Larry Lucido]

she tweeted.

Some Maalox may help that.

[healy61]

Only the RINO seem to give any concern for Specter. The rest are ready to restore the party and send the rest packing.

[cripplecreek]

We would be a lot better off with an unapologetic conservative in Michael Steele’s place.
