Meghan McCain would be a great Senate replacement for her father
Washington Examiner ^ | 27 August 2018 | Tom Rogan

Sen. John McCain's passing has left his Senate seat vacant and waiting to be filled by Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey, a Republican. If she's interested in filling that seat, Meghan McCain would deserve immediate support from conservatives.

To be clear, Meghan McCain might not want to be a U.S. senator. And that's fine, no one should ever face pressure to serve in public office unless in the situation of a national emergency. But if McCain is open to replacing her father until a special election can be held in 2020, she would make a great conservative successor to her irreplaceable predecessor.

First off, McCain is a person of high integrity. The best evidence for this is rendered by McCain's television appearances on ABC's "The View." Surrounded by liberals with whom she fundamentally disagrees, McCain balances passionate argument and respect. In our era of partisan rancor, the need for senators who can get along even as they disagree has never been greater. John McCain was one example of that high character and his daughter would be another.

Second, McCain is a conservative of strong values. Whether pushing back against socialism, or politely interrogating guests, or arguing for social mobility and a strong national defense, McCain's appearances on "The View" show that she is well-versed on the issues and well-placed to advance conservative interests. This bears close consideration in light of the fact that Tuesday's Republican primary for Arizona's second Senate seat is being contested by one Republican, one ( perhaps senile) racist, and one extreme moron. Compared to the latter two, McCain would set a far higher standard as a conservative representative. Arizona deserves her service.

Why, because she has female genitalia, the same last name, and is leftist?

She also admits to voting for John Kerry in 2004. If Kerry decides to run in 2020 she will be campaigning for him against Trump.

I stand by my original comment that she gives new meaning to the word ' useless'.

"Or does the family just need the money?"

They have plenty of Money with Cindy McCain's family owning a number of Budweiser Distributorships.

Let's Boycott Budweiser.

If you are still drinking Bud, you really should stop anyway. There are much better choices out there. Friends don’t let Friends drink Brazilian beer.

Megs showed during her dads funeral that she is a petty very little girl.
Neither she nor McLames wife deserve to be in the senate seat he kept for a year while doing zero with said position.

Hey Megs, just keep eating Cleveland ya fat dope.

The fact that she appears on The View should disqualify her from all public service, even dog catcher.

“When is this appointment due?”

I heard it was to be immediately after he was buried. Since I refused to watch or pay attention to ANY of the week-long McCain circus, I don’t know if he has been buried yet.

All I’ve heard, read is Ducey will appoint someone quickly. IF there’s a due date I’ve missed it.

Only due date I've heard is after the burial. So I would assume sometime this week.

Why not just put a golden ticket in a chocolate bar, and whoever finds it can be the Senator?

She certainly has the deranged and spiteful temperament for it.....she obviously has coping problems that go beyond a normal adult losing an aging parent.

Ducey, don’t appoint Meg McCain. If you do... you’ll never be re-elected...
