Meghan McCain wants to be political strategist, ‘kick Obama’s ass’
Daily Caller ^ | 11/22/2010 | Laura Donovan

Meghan McCain, daughter of Ariz. Senator John McCain and author of the “modestly” sold book “Dirty Sexy Politics,” is considering a career as a political strategist, according to Politico.

“I’ve already had people interested in me working, which is unbelievably flattering,” McCain said at the Miami Book Fair International. “I want to go out and do it all over again with somebody else — I want to go get a Republican elected. I want to kick Obama’s ass the next election and get a Republican elected.”

McCain says she wants to do anything she can to secure a 2012 GOP win because President Barack Obama has “done little to nothing with his administration.”

During the 2010 midterm elections, McCain took numerous shots at Tea Party-backed Delaware Republican candidate Christine O’Donnell for being politically inexperienced.

“Well, I speak as a 26-year-old woman, and my problem is that, no matter what, Christine O’Donnell is making a mockery of running for public office,” McCain told ABC. “She has no real history, no real success in any kind of business and what that sends to my generation is one day you can just wake up and run for Senate, no matter how lack of experience you have…I just know, in my group of friends, it just turns people off because she’s seen as a nutjob.”

Several days later, McCain told Jay Leno, “I was never a fan of Christine O’Donnell because I think again it belittles all the great people that run for office. Um and you know, she’s out of her frickin’ mind, so I’m glad she’s not in the senate, you know?”

In November, McCain questioned Palin’s substance and readiness for a 2012 presidency:

“I don’t understand what she is doing if she wants to be the leader of this country doing a reality show. It’s not the path I would take if I was advising someone to run for president.”

Maybe she and Ron Reagan can get their own show and call it “Badmouthing what your parents believe in”

If it wasn’t for the last name of their parents you’d never see these 2 a##hats on TV.

Only thing Meghan the Hutt is going to kick is Ben and Jerry’s empties out of her way as she waddles to the freezer for more.

Right. And if a conservative is nominated, she will endorse Obama. So she want’s to kick Obama’s ass, as long as it makes no difference.

Kick ass? Gee I thought her brand of moderate Republican rejected that kind of tough rhetoric. She might be charged with hate speech.

Is she talking about herself? She'd be an even greater nobody if she wasn't exploiting her father's political career.

Dirty Sexy Politics [Hardcover]
Meghan Mccain (Author)

Price: $13.19
You Save: $10.80 (45%)

Reviews:

By wogan “the book reader” (U.S.A.) -

Despite the title: Dirty Sexy Politics, Meghan McCain’s book is mostly about her and her feelings during the 2008 presidential campaign. She tells of stealing other politician’s signs and mostly her belief that she was an outsider in her father’s run for the White House. She is kept out of the loop in many instances, especially in the choosing of Sarah Palin as the vice-presidential candidate.

Meghan McCain is a hot mess....
12 things Meghan McCain talks about in her book....

1. Her hair, make-up, high heels, and love of sparkly clothing with sequins.

2.

2.0 out of 5 stars Embarrassing
I can’t say it any better than the reviewers who gave it one and two stars. Megan comes across as dreadfully immature and horribly spoiled without a clue as to reality.
Published 8 days ago by Tiza

1.0 out of 5 stars Sorely disappointed
I am tempted to send my book back to Ms McCain and ask for at least a portion of my money back, if not the whole $24+.

1.0 out of 5 stars don’t waste your money unless.....
don’t waste your money on this book unless you want to read about a spoiled az princess who has a lot of time on her hands. here’s the scoop....

If you’re looking for a book that conveys no relevant information other than the musings of a early twenties “child-of” during one of the most historic campaigns in history, this is it.

This book is painful to read. Did she even have an editor?, September 13, 2010
By D. Meyers “shopgirltx” (texas)

It is impossible to read Dirty, Sexy Politics and come away with the impression that you have read anything other than the completely unedited ramblings of an idiot......

Death by Comma-cide, September 13, 2010
By David McCune “self-deprecating and proud of it” (Tacoma, WA)

If you really need a peek into the mind of someone who epitomizes the concept of “born on third base thinking she hit a triple”, I recommend Ms. McCain’s book.

Excerpt:
Our room was crowded with our stuff - a total mess, totally trashed with blog equipment, photo stuff, cameras, and all our makeup, clothes, our huge suitcases. We were like animals, like bears who have to litter and mess up their cave to feel it is theirs.

On the other hand, for those who would prefer to read an epic beatdown such a book, I recommend Leon Wolf’s sublime skewering of Ms. McCain at The New Ledger.

She needs to go away or better yet get a job hosting a show on MSNBC where she would fit right in.

It’s OK if you’re a moderate and looking for work.
