Bristol Palin trashes the McCain family in upcoming memoir (Rip Away!)
yahoo ^ | 6/21/2011 | By Holly Bailey

John McCain and Sarah Palin have long insisted things are all good between them, even after their losing 2008 presidential effort wound up with a nasty bout finger pointing between loyalists to the two former running mates. But the family members of both candidates are not being so publicly amicable.

As ABC News's Sheila Marikar reports, Bristol Palin trashes the McCain clan in her new upcoming memoir, "Not Afraid of Life: My Journey So Far."

It's unclear from Marikar's report whether the 20-year-old Palin daughter e specifically mentions her mother's running mate, her book does slam McCain's wife, Cindy, for acting like "royalty" and accuses the senator's 26-year-old daughter, Meghan, of being a snobby whiner.

Palin writes that she had a "sneaking suspicion I might need to watch my back" the first time she met Meghan McCain. She says the senator's daughter "ignored" the family during their first meet-and-greet and always seemed to be judging them.

"Every time we saw Meghan, she seemed to be constantly checking us out, comparing my family to hers and complaining," Bristol Palin writes. "Oh the complaining."

Cindy McCain, Palin writes, looked like a "queen" and conducted "herself like royalty." "I'd never seen people with so much Louis Vuitton luggage, so many cell phones, and so many constant helpers to do hair and makeup," Palin writes.

Bristol didn’t ask to be a household name. Let her have her book...she has been lied about and dragged through the mud.

People are responding as if I’d said something negative about Bristol Palin or positive about Cindy McCain, but it wasn’t intended

No worries; we cool. :-D

subterfuge, you are correct, I just took a look at the bitter ladyjane’s posting history, she is an old Romneybot from way back.

And she is no fan of the Palins either.

Ha! I can spot 'em a mile away. Lots of FReeper training. Thanks anse.

Bristol is not trashy, nor is she a bimbo.

Bristol is a nationally know abstinence and pro life activist and spokeswoman, and at 20, is already headed for her second self made million.

I think that explains your girlish jealousy and foul mouthed anti-conservative tone.

You haven’t even read the book.

I don’t have to read the book, the fact that the children are sniping at each other in public is enough. Those girls are keepin’ it real classy. I’m not planning to read the book. I didn’t read McCain’s book and I don’t really care what a 20 year old has to say about life. It’s ridiculous. The entire Palin clan are becoming more and more crass by the day.

My husband and I are both extremely successful professionals with a very comfortable income so I’m hardly jealous of her “millions”. I have my own, thanks!

And “trashy bimbo” is hardly foul mouthed or anti-conservative. Plenty of conservatives know a pair of trashy bimbos when they see them.

Only a trashy bimbo would be attacking a 20 year old conservative activist.

A trashy bimbo could not be bothered to read a book before creating a phony attack against a conservative youth leader.

Pot, meet Kettle.

Talk about a waste of paper. But wait, if Bristol is the result of Sarah-Sex with Todd, she cannot be wrong.

You haven’t read the book, or even a review, have you.
