MEGHAN MCCAIN: I Expect My Family And Sarah Palin To Be Nothing Short Of Crucified By HBO's 'GAME CHANGE'

HBO is adapting a miniseries based on Game Change, the book about the 2008 election.

But as Hollywood casts liberal actors to play all the parts, Meghan McCain doubts that it will be an accurate portrayal of what actually happened.

Game Change, the infamous bestseller written by John Heilemann and Mark Halperin, has plagued anyone directly associated with the 2008 election cycle.

The first time I heard about the book was within weeks after Obama was elected—my former press person from the campaign told me Mark Halperin, a man I had only heard of in name and was not an embed on the campaign, wanted to conduct an interview about “what really happened.”

Reporters aren’t generally known for their sensitivity and tact, but I can remember thinking, nice timing sir. They also asked everyone from my mother and her chief of staff to Rick Davis and Steve Schmidt for an interview. The only person that confirmed actually giving such an interview was my father’s longtime speechwriter and “alter ego” Mark Salter. I still have no idea what he was thinking.

Read more! Very bad language.......LOL.

I'm guessing that Meghan is only concerned because HBO portrays her as a fat, slutty, dingbat.

I can't imagine her caring about anyone else’s feelings - unless it somehow adversely affects her in some way.

JMO - FWIW -

I wonder if they will even Bridget McCain?

Her loudmouth sister seems to have sucked all the attention from her, I can imagine in 20 years Bridget might actually turn out to be a decent human being.

If her father comes off looking badly then I’m sure it is justified. He ran a terrible campaign.

This spoiled bi#th was the leader of the band in the ‘Mccain Bashing’ bash. Now she is concerned? What a piece of white trash.

When she learns the concept of cause and effect, Meghan might be on her way to adulthood.

The filmmakers, and others behind it, are those she personally enabled in her never ending attacks on both Palin and the party.

This child is akin to an infant with a machine gun: So much potential for damage without the slightest idea what it’s doing, and nothing driving it but id.

So, my guess is this is a preemptive apology from someone who shot their mouth off to the author in order to get attention.

And now she realizes just how it will be used to smear an innocent person, Sarah Palin.

You know, you could have just typed her name instead of posting the picture.

Just wait until the actress for Cindy is cast

Some suggestions for Meghan's part:

Rosie in a blond wig.
Ms Piggie
An over-inflated "adult" doll
Jack Black in drag
Meatloaf in drag
Kirstie Alley (walking on her knees)
Other ideas?

Sarah is immune having been crucified endlessly for the past 2-1/2 years and you joined in the bashing. Now the shoe's on the other foot and you whine about it?? Get over yourself, it's what Hollywood and the libs do and they don't give a damn whether you joined them in the past or not.

One of the reasons that I don’t get HBO. It’s for anti-American, crazyass liberal retards.

has plagued anyone directly associated with the 2008 election cycle.

I do not think that word means what you think it means.
