O’Donnell: Not a witch but maybe a nut job?
Meghan McCain, the outspoken daughter of Senator John McCain, showed her father’s outspoken tendencies as she described Senate candidate Christine O’Donnell of Delaware as a “nut job”.

“Christine O’Donnell is making a mockery of running for public office,” Meghan McCain said of her father’s fellow Republican, who recently ran an ad declaring, “I’m not a witch.”

Appearing on ABC’s “This Week,” McCain said Tea Party favorite O’Donnell “has no real history, no real success in any kind of business.”

“And what that sends to my generation is (the message that) one day, you can just wake up and run for Senate, no matter how lack of experience you have,” said McCain, 26, author of the new book, “Dirty Sexy Politics.”

3. That's as bad as thinking that you can just wake up someday
and be considered a legitimate political commentator, just because your dad is a grumpy old Senator.

4. At least somebody's saying what should be said
I won't be too picky about the source. If it was a Dem saying it, they'd write it off to irrational anger or some crap.

If it knocks these Teabaggers back, put her out on the talk circuit and remind everyone what an unqualified loser Palin is.
