Sen. John McCain's daughter called into question the political stature of the Tea Party movement Monday and sharply criticized a former congressman for his controversial comments at a recent major gathering of these conservative activists.
Former Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colorado, slammed President Obama on the first night of the Tea Party convention last week in Nashville. Tancredo, known for his outspoken views on illegal immigration and his disdain for Sen. McCain, charged during his speech that "People who could not even spell the word 'vote', or say it in English, put a committed socialist ideologue in the White House. His name is Barack Hussein Obama."
Tancredo also expressed relief that Sen. McCain, the 2008 Republican presidential nominee, lost his White House bid. "Thank God John McCain lost the election," Tancredo said.

I am still troubled that the Tea Party movement embraces Sarah Palin, but Sarah Palin embraces John McCain’s re-election.
Total double standard.

“Why does anyone care what she has to say?”
I agree. My daughter loves Obama. So, who cares? And why do I care what McLame’s daughter says anyway? Is she the new head of the Republican party? I thought her father was enough embarrassment for one family, doncha’ think?

Who dat cares what piglet thinks. I don't, I don't.
McCain still having a woman (piglet) doing the work for him.
Without Palin, John would have had no cash in 08.
Piglet and mom are working the gay vote for him while he plays the tough guy.
I will support McCain in his decision to retire.

Why is she bothering being part of a party she doesn’t like? The Demonrats seem to be everything she wants.

I have young grandchildren who know more about whats relevant than this person. When you look in the dictionary for the meaning of ‘air head’ I am sure they just show her picture.
