14. Actually Megan McCain is one of the few sensible Republicans

Nov 2012

The segment just ended and I wholeheartedly agree with Megan (except that part about liking Bill O'Reilly). She is what the Republican party needs. They need more moderate, young, diverse people in there for them to have a shot. She made some very good points about how the party will die off if they don't accept the fact that the country is "browner" and how they need to get over these social issues. I actually liked the segment very much.

Does she frighten you because she speaks for expanding the GOP tent. Sekhmets Daughter Nov 2012 #1
