I like Megan McCain, she seems like a plucky young girl...
not full of herself like the Bush twins.

Here's one of my favorite quotes:

The types of guys she likes: “Seriously. Ugh! If you’re an investment banker, don’t hit on me. You can quote me. I’m not interested.”

:rofl:

1. I like her too.
When people were criticizing her for having the audacity to be bigger than a size 0, she told them to go pound sand.

3. she's an adult, not a "young girl"
I appreciate the rest of what you wrote, but could we please not treat women like children here? People 5 years younger than her are soldiers in Iraq, ferchrissakes.

15. To me anybody under 25 is a girl or a guy...
To me, she's still a child, I guess it shows my age.

17. "guy" denotes adult. "girl" denotes child.
therein lies the problem.

4. Why do ALL rethugs in the rethug political hierarchy have RANCHES?
Are THEY ALL just a bunch of wannabe cowboys?

6. Had a VP candidate's daughter in my dorm in college. A small,
very conservative, very catholic women's college. She was Bill Miller's daughter. He was running as Goldwater's VP. She had some protection but not much that was noticable and she really was able to go on with her regular life. I pity these kids today, Dem or Repub. It must be very difficult for them.

8. Stephanie Miller has certainly gone on with her
regular life.

I just love to listen to her and know that she is the daughter of Rep Miller, Barry Goldweater's running mate in 1964.

9. Was she the younger daughter? I recall there were two. The gal
that I remember was Libby? I think that was her name. She was a senior when I was a freshman.

10. I know Stephanie is around age 46, if that helps with the reference...
I think I've heard her mention that she went to USC for her studies, so it must have been her sister.

11. That's nice. If she campaigns for her father she is fair game
for the same sort of attacks that are launched on other candidate's spouses and children. I don't really care how 'plucky' she is, whatever that means, or her dating preferences. Everyone working for the republican party is a war criminal and a fascist. They are the enemy.

16. No argument from me..
she seems to have a decent personality, unlike any of the Bush family. That was my only frame of reference here.

23. Took the words out of my mouth.
Edited on Thu Mar-20-08 09:36 AM by Javaman
if Obama and Hillary keep going at each other they way they are and they both keep ignoring mclame they way they seem to be, those who consider mclames spawn to be "plucky" better get used to her being around.

Bottom line, this "plucky" young woman is campaigning for mclame, means that she also supports his platform of bombing iran and continuing the war. If that is true, why didn't she follow her brother into the service?

there are evil brown shirts and there are nice brown shirts, but in the end, they are still brown shirts.

13. Pretty shallow. Identifies everybody by their astrological sign. She's a Scorpio, to anyone that
gives a shit.

14. I can't like anyone who is supporting this illegal, immoral war. Over a million dead, our treasury
Edited on Wed Mar-19-08 01:04 PM by OmmmSweetOmmm
plundered by (at least) a half a trillion dollars. She's 23, let her sign up to fight.

18. You rely on a puff piece from Fucked Noose for your opinions?
Ah, well. Whatever.

20. John McCain's kids at least seem decent-two have been in the military, one in Iraq
Megan actually has a lot of praise for Chelsea Clinton. She says she is more liberal than her father. Look at Ronald Reagan's daughter. As the daughter of a very conservative father I know what it is to love your father and support your father but not agree with him on any issue facing the country right now. She seems okay.
