(CNN) — The always-outspoken Roberta McCain — mother of Sen. John McCain — took a swipe at Rush Limbaugh Wednesday, saying the popular conservative radio host "does not represent the Republican Party that I belong to".
"I belong to the Republican Party," McCain, 97, said during an appearance on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno. "What he represents of the Republican Party has nothing to do with my side of it. I don't know what the man means, I don't know what he's talking about."
McCain also praised Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele for labeling Limbaugh an "entertainer" earlier this year during an interview on CNN.
"I think [Steele] was exactly right when he defined this man as an entertainer," she said. "To my horror, the Republican Party made him back up on it."

The Republican Party of her generation was the Country Club set wasn’t it?
How many more McCain women are going to be trotted out before the media figures out we don’t really care what any of them think?
I find Rush entertaining.
And informative.
All of the McCain women aren’t worth a dime together.
No kidding. Would these people please just go away.
Rino Momma Alert!
I’m getting pretty sick of the McCain family.
“I belong to the Republican Party,” McCain, 97,”
Ah, another liberal......
You nailed it.
Because she has never listened to his show. She has only been told what Rush talks about. Why else would Leno want her on his show unless she was going to trash Rush and conservatives?!
Yep. and out of power most of her life.
Clearly. Weren't the McCains slave owners?
They can’t stop trying to find a “TRUE” Republican to put Rush down.
How strange.
Rush calls himself an entertainer too.
Over-protective RINO mom protecting her RINO Brats.
She’s absolutely right. Neither does Dick Cheney. If Rush was the face of the R party, we would have won the last election.
Exactly.
She also said she wouldn’t vote for her son.
We’re beginning to see the depth of infiltration on our side.
Well he is entertaining.
