    don’t waster your money unless your a MSNBC watcher. This chick is just a Liberal trying to destroy the Republican party. She is NO Republican. If her daddy was not a member of the GOP and was a open Democrat, so would she.

    She has nothing to offer and has not done anything on her own. Unlike Sara Palin, McCain is a parasite living off her parents wealth.

    She is a goof and needs to just admit she is a Democrat. But that would take honesty and character, which is in sort supply with all Liberals.

    I think she should hang out with the Bush daughters, children of privilege, and just liberals with no brains .

    I only voted for her dad because Palin was on the ticket, otherwise I would have not voted for President in 2008.

    Daddy’s Girl – all growed up and savin the US of A!

    Is this a great country or what?

    It has been quite interesting to see the fringe element of the Republican turn on Ms. McCain’s father. Two years ago he was the best man in America to become President. Now he’s a RINO who doesn’t deserve to stay in the Senate. Does any Party manage to eat its own quite like the Republicans?

    Of course, Sen. McCain didn’t exactly help his cause by turning about 180 degrees and, among many other things, suddenly claiming he never was a Maverick. I thought that was what Sarah Palin likeda about him – that he was so Maverick-y. Guess that U-turn crashed the Straight Talk Express.

    Perhaps Ms. McCain is our young Sarah Palin. Without the very limited government experience, of course. After all, Ms. Palin did manage to struggle through almost half a term as Governor.

    On the other hand, if you asked her Ms. McCain could probably name the newspaper(s) she reads each day. Or, at least some good websites. Wonkette?

    And Ms. McCain wouldn’t waste millions of dollars of taxpayer money on a gas pipeline with no gas. Or push through a Socialist windfall profits tax on oil companies. Or campaign for a Bridge to Nowhere. Other than those things, however…

    Laura Ingraham once called Meghan McCain a “useful idiot.” That pretty much sums up this book for me…useful idiocy, printed and bound with a cute cover. There are portions that are very intellectual and witty and the book in its entirety is pretty well-written. However, during the maturity of the book, I was constantly reminded of her credentials(or lack thereof.) Why am I reading a twenty-five year olds (mostly political) memoior who is notorious for being a party girl and who has little else as far as experience; apart from riding around on daddy’s tour bus and writing blogs? The gal hangs out with Heidi Montag-Pratt and has a star tattoo on her foot…for crying out loud! What’s next? Snookie getting the Nobel Peace Prize? I will say that her “White House doggy-bag” story did give me slight chuckle, but it comes down to the fact that there are many more merited and deserving candidates who would be much more suited being the fresh and pretty face of the Republican Party. Meghan is unfortunatly, ill-deserving of this title.

    I myself, am a twenty-five year old, college educated, Republican woman who also came from a priviliged family…and I can truly attest to the fact that MOST of us have not experienced enough life, voted in enough elections or learned enough valuable lessons to write a book, especially not a book about the world of politics. Meghan has indeed proved me right.

    However, I have to give kudos where it is due on the elephant cover. Maybe Obama’s next book will have him side-saddle on a donkey.

    Anyone who is slamming this book hasn’t read it or is probably just a liberal trying to say nasty things just because it’s Megan McCain. They aren’t getting the message of what she’s saying. READ THE BOOK. I read it in one night because it was enjoyable to read and see a campaign through Megan McCain’s eyes. She’s flawed, the Republican pary is flawed and she is candid about how she feels about gay marriage, abortion and religion.

    I loved this book because she DOES speak for a lot of us younger republicans who feel the same way as she does in regard to social issues. I admire what she’s doing. She isn’t perfect, she admits that very honestly and humorously. I’d recommend this book to republicans and democrats alike because it’s just a delight to read, it doesn’t matter what party you belong to.

    McCain tells the behind-the-scenes story of her father’s campaign in a lively, enjoyable way. The narrative is unusually attention-holding for a memoir. McCain accords great respect to the Palin family and even to the louts who ran her father’s campaign, many of whom she refrains from naming. Conservatives who are expecting a “bratty liberal” will be pleasantly surprised. They should find much to enjoy in the story. More importantly, they will find valuable insights from a next-generation Republican.
