McCain Ruined His Daughter's Love Life...really?!

During my daily browsing of cnn.com I stumbled across this story. Apparently, John McCain's daughter Meghan said in a blog post for The Daily Beast that "nothing kills my libido quite like discussing politics" and that the presidential election "killed my personal life." She went on to write, "Of all the things people warned would happen post-election, no one ever said anything about how complicated dating would become. Especially if your dad loses the election. There are things that have been difficult, but nothing quite as tough as dating. I fear the election has destroyed my ability and desire to date. Now, I cannot say at any point in my life that I have been very good at dating. But I have become something I used to despise: people who let politics dictate his or her attraction to someone."
First of all, she used the word "libido" and alluded to her 118-year-old father in the same sentence--problem number one. Second, I think the fact that I was John McCain's daughter in the first place would be a bit higher on my list of life concerns. Instead of analyzing how her dating life has changed she should be scrambling to find a way to change her name and create a whole new identity for herself. Third, she says dating has become complicated and has destroyed her desire to date but then goes on to say that she has never been good at dating...so what's her point? She's never been good at dating and she's not good now. I would say her father losing the election has little to do with it, the issue seems to be her. Listen, if George W. Bush's daughter can find a man willing to marry her and be linked to that train-wreck of a legacy, anybody can.

The simple fact that the only thing Meghan McCain has to speak out about is her dating life (aka she has nothing to say) shows she really is McCain's daughter. McCain never had much to say except bumbling attempts at debate retorts and exploitative anecdotes of his time as a POW. Like father, like daughter.

She also has a very poorly written blog that used to detail her life on the campaign trail but now is a bunch of nothing. Laugh at it here: mccainblogette.com. If she has masses of people reading that hot mess, and has a paid job writing for The Daily Beast, I should stop worrying about finding a job in May.

I say, shut up Meghan McCain--we didn't care what your father had to say and we don't care what you have to say. There might be a few more important things we should be discussing besides how you're not a good dater...like--oh I don't know--the massive recession, the 46 million Americans without health insurance, the Iraq pullout, anything but you!
