Meghan McCain: I've Had 'All The Sarah Palin I Need For One Lifetime'

Sen. John McCain's (R-AZ) daughter, Meghan McCain, said on Monday she has no plans to subscribe to the online network launched by her father's former GOP vice presidential running mate because she's had “all the Sarah Palin I need for one lifetime.”

During “TakePart Live,” the digital news and lifestyle show she co-hosts on Pivot, McCain discussed Palin’s new media site, The Sarah Palin Channel, saying she doesn't get what the former Alaska governor is trying to do.

“I don’t know how this is different than a blog with video posts,” McCain said. “It didn’t look like a video channel. Glenn Beck has the Blaze, which is an actual channel you can turn to on television.”

(snip)
“Americans are innately curious about her for a lot of different reasons, whether you love her or you hate her, people are curious,” she said. “I am not going to subscribe to Sarah Palin’s $9.95 per month. I got all the Sarah Palin I need for one lifetime.”

With any luck, she'll never come out from behind that paywall.

who could have appealed to the moderate and independent voters. Instead he allowed himself to be conned into thinking he needed to pick someone who appealed to the know-nothing voters who eventually morphed into the tea party.

The idea that the religious right was going to sit at home and allow a "communist Muslim infiltrator" take the presidency simply because they didn't have a Bible beater on the ticket was laughable.
