It’s a pretty good indication of just how far the GOP has fallen when Meghan McCain can generate such veneration just based on having some views that aren’t batshit crazy. ---

Good point **Yookeroo**. Not trolling for sex in airport bathrooms and think the world is older than 5,000 years? You could be the great hope for the GOP. ---

It’s not so much that, as the fact that she’s hot and has a vagina. Some males grow out of the “ready to declare love for any good-looking woman instantly if she can prove she has a pulse and at least some other minor redeeming quality or talent” phase in high school. For others it takes a little more time. (read: never) ---

> [@Starving\_Artist](#): > > Too bad she doesn’t have the perspective of reality on those years, then she could have told Begala he was full of shit. Reagan scarcely mentioned Carter (neither did most of the rest of the country) once the election was over, much less every day. He merely took over and began governing the country properly. Begala is a liar, a bully and an asshole. Whether that’s true or not, Meghan McCain folded like origami under his “withering” wisecrack, and played the “poor little me, I’m just a girl, getting picked on by all the mean liberals!” She looked weak and ditzy. Claiming not to know what went on during the Reagan administration because you’re only in your 20s, and poor widdle you couldn’t possibly be expected to know that, does not speak well of your education or knowledge base. I agree with Dewey Finn-- she came off like an airhead on Maher’s show, who is in the spotlight because she’s cute and has a famous daddy, even though I thought Bill himself was pretty nice to her. Want to run with the big boys? Put on your big girl pants. Maybe it was just an off day for her, I don’t know. ---

For others it takes a little more time. (read: never) I am engaged to a woman who makes more money than I do, is artsy, and can shoot ping pong balls out of her vagina. Those are _three_ minor redeeming qualities, thank you very much. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-think-im-in-love-with-meghan-mccain/497024.md?page=1)
