Meghan McCain is, like, totally the new maverick. We hope she's on the ballot in 2024. She's young now, but with further education and family support, she could really turn this country around sometime in the future when we need it most . . . say, after Sarah Palin. In...

Meghan McCain is, like, totally the new maverick.

We hope she's on the ballot in 2024. She's young now, but with further education and family support, she could really turn this country around sometime in the future when we need it most . . . say, after Sarah Palin.

In the meantime, our future president McCain will sign copies of her new book, Dirty Sexy Politics, a daughter's-eye view of the 2008 presidential campaign. She went front line with her McCainBlogette.com and campaigned relentlessly despite early media gaffes and unwanted political makeovers. She totally dishes on her father's staff, Sarah and Bristol Palin, Jenna Bush, and her own inadequacies as a "daughter-of."

Like father, like daughter . . . maverick style.
