Cindy McCain hit back at conservative blogger and commentator Michelle Malkin on Twitter after Malkin attacked her late husband, Sen. John McCain, Friday at the Conservative Political Action Conference.

“You never knew @SenJohnMcCain . You should be so lucky,” the late senator’s widow tweeted.

McCain, an Arizona Republican, supported increased border security but also advocated for compromise. He died in August, and attendees from both sides of the political spectrum gathered to pay their respects as he laid in state in both the Arizona Capitol and the U.S. Capitol Rotunda and for his funeral. The former prisoner of war and political maverick was widely regarded as a statesman.

During an anti-immigration speech at CPAC Friday, Malkin called out McCain while describing how she thought Republicans' leadership was not doing a sufficient job dealing with immigration.

“And yes, I’m looking at you, the ghost of John McCain,” Malkin said, receiving a standing ovation from the crowd. “It’s the GOP sellouts, not just the radical open-borders Left that is in bed with immigration saboteurs,” she added. “Those are the real grifters.”
