Meghan McCain, daughter of 2008 GOP presidential nominee John McCain, has a tell-all book out entitled Dirty Sexy Politics. In it she describes her experiences campaigning with and blogging about her dad. The book is one third chronicle of the lives of campaign children, one part a picture inside the campaign and one third angst: clothes, make up, hair, appearance, mean blog comments, unflattering media coverage. There's a lot of crying involved. Oh, and “crazy sex,” which McCain describes as, “sex with somebody who is extremely bad for you. Somebody you probably don't even like that much. But on the road, things have a way of changing.” McCain cites numerous examples of such transgressions – she says she did not partake herself – though she's changed most of the names to protect “the identities of a few campaign staffers and members of the media about whom I had bad things to say.” She's sure to note early on that she was very young – 23, 24 at the time – and so made some childish mistakes.

Other transgressions garner somewhat less empathy for youthful indiscretions. For example, she writes about stealing Romney lawn signs on New Hampshire primary day and getting caught by an upstanding citizen. Her solution? She speeds her way from the scene and coerces her mother's hairstylist, who looks like her, to go back and wait for the State Troopers.

The fruit doesnt fall very far fron the tree.
Ah yes, she’s suffering the same fate as dear old Dad. Pandering to the left for praise, hugs, and kisses, and getting ridiculed by those very same people from whom she craves attention.
I think “daddy issues” have a lot to do with both of them acting that way.
One of a number of hired guns.
It is to be taken in total, not the lynch pin.
At 23-24 neither my husband nor I were still making childish mistakes. We have raised 2 children who are at or slightly past that age and they are both contributing ADULT members of society.
Calling one’s mistakes made at 24-24 childish says much about the lack of maturity in the one admitting those mistakes. Maybe Ms McCain need to come out of her bubble, get a real job and a real life and grow up.
I think Laz snuck on the bus.
Laz: strong lye soap, immediately afterwards.
And a hammer and chisel. ;)
He sacrificed honor and integrity for instance
She is good for ice cream and hair coloring product sales.

Is there a hidden message here?
Are you trying to say she plays for the ‘other’ team?
Nope. Just that she acts as scatterbrained as her dad has.
