McCain's daughter questions Tea Party movement

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.

Another reason to support JD Hayworth.

Who gives a damn what McCain’s daughter has to say about anything

There's a side-show fascination with the fact that a cow can talk.

Meghan McCain says this: "Meghan McCain also decried the divisiveness and partisanship in American politics and the growing populist rage that has powered the Tea Party movement." right after calling Tancredo an "inate racist".

My note to Martina, blog writer.

Martina,

McCain's daughter doesn't mean anything to anyone but her family. You writing about this is like peeing in the wind.

The Tea Party will applaud and laud the principles of conservative American people from coast to coast. And they will be the big winner in Nov 2010 and beyond. Check us out April 15th and in DC July 4th.

The McCains are irrelevant and so is your article.

Well, she is chunky but I am not sure I have ever seen more than this one daughter. So I can’t say if another one might be.

She’s probably more into milkshakes and DQ Blizzards.

Once JD Hayworth turns daddy McCain out to pasture, Meghan will become a Democrat in name, as well as in stupidity.

Don’t get too hung up on Sarah’s endorsements in the primaries; by the time the general election comes around no one will remember the Arizona primaries, the Texas Governer’s primaries, or the Florida primaries.

She is also reaching out the Republican Establishment; you know people like Karl Rove who can really make her the next President of the United States.

Then again, she might have to cancel her appearance at that McCain fundraiser in Phoenix in March.

She STILL has not had time to get her nails done, dag nabit.
