Meghan McCain Jeers 'Crazy People' on Twitter

Are you kidding me? Meghan McCain is a Godsend. She is creating a dividing line between the more sensible side of the GOP and the absolutely raging maniacs who rallied for Sarah Palin and who sank the Republican Party.
Oh and she's helping keep the GOP fighting amongst themselves, too!
I say we slap a moratorium on giving her any flak. Napoleon once said why stop the enemy when they're screwing up? The man had a point. Go, Meghan! Go, GOP! Do what Dubya said and stay the course!

I am happy to remember it as long as I don't have to live with it anymore. If Republicans continue being the party that only needs a bench instead of a tent, we will be "remembering" them for many years to come. You can keep your "True Republicans" pure. Send those that don't fit the mold somewhere else, they will be welcomed.

Pschiatrists have long known that the really "crazy people" are the ones who think everyone else is nuts except themselves. Ms. McCain needs to stick to her "preppyness" and stay out of the big leagues of politics. Bad fruit never falls far from a bad tree.

This is more of a question for your father Meghan. During the campaign he promised that we would "know their names" do you remember? So what's preventing him from telling us now? If you get bored with promoting homosexuals could you ask daddy what's up with that?

Meghan McCain is what we TRUE Republicans (the GOP) call a RINO--Republican In Name Only. There is only ONE TRUE Republican Party. If a person has ideals and desires for this country that differ from the foundational beliefs of the GOP, they need to register Democrat or Independent and call themselves that. They do the Republican Party a disservice by doing things like Meghan McCain is doing. I am a follower of her father, John McCain, on Twitter. He has too much class to use that kind of language in the the messages he sends. She acts like a spoiled brat. If she registered Republican to please her dad (which I heard that she did), she needs to change her party affiliation. She's not doing anybody any good. REPUBLICANS DO NOT WANT TO BE MORE LIKE DEMOCRATS! That was the MAIN IDEA OF THE "TEA PARTIES." They were not JUST about taxes. They were about getting back to the true foundation of what the Republican/conservative party is about economically: Low Taxes, Small Government = NO MORE BAIL OUTS, NO MORE TARPS, NO MORE STIMULUS PLANS THAT COST TAXPAYERS TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS!! As far as the "Divisive Issues" such as Gay Marriage and Abortion: those are also issues that make traditional Republican/conservative values DIFFERENT from the Democrats. If both parties had the same ideals and values, there would be no need for two parties. True conservative Republicans believe in Traditional Marriage between one man and one woman and the "Right to Life" for the unborn child. So, Meghan (and others like her), make up your mind. Change your beliefs and ideals or change your party affiliation! True Republicans DO NOT want to "progress" into pseudo Democrats. WE WANT TO GET BACK TO OUR ROOTS OF MORE TRADITIONAL CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN IDEALS!

Megan McCain is the one shouting the 'Emperor has no clothes'.
America needs a 2nd party to plan a role to offer reasonable alternatives and to enable informed debate - the GOP currently can't be taken seriously and if they persist in leaning on the wacko right for support, they're toast!
Succession talk from the Perry/Palin Ticket is stupid, anti-American and just plain childish.
Will the GOP grow up or just fade away?

I'm glad there are people like Meghan McCain out there that are challenging the mold of a Republican. There are lots of us that don't have gray hair and glasses and fit the perception that the democrats have managed to paint of the typical republican. I'm tired of Gen X'ers and Y'ers picking political parties based on MTV's recommendation. I don't know if I would have picked the Log Cabin republicans to make my stand, but if that's her type of thing--go for it.

Meghan who?

here, because, I do believe Meghan is preferable to her party. But, frankly, if her name wasn't McCain and she wasn't burdened with being a beer heiress to Cindy, she wouldn't BE a Republican. Her public comments do not comport with the philosophy of that party of "crazy people".

This country was founded with people who had Christian
values.
Why change it just because a few non-believers want to?
We should hold a geneal election and get w final
anwser.
