Jenny McCarthy upset about John McCain snub
Actress/model Jenny McCarthy was left frustrated when she attempted to discuss autism issues with US presidential candidate Senator John McCain - because his campaign manager decided the hot-button topic was too controversial.

McCarthy, who is among those leading the charge to legislate vaccines she claims cause autism in children, was thrilled when Republican McCain stated that he believed there was a connection between the thimerosal vaccine and autism.

She arranged for a meeting with the Senator and flew to speak to him about her own experiences - her son Evan has battled autism since he was born.

The actress hoped the meeting would prompt McCain to make autism and the battle against it a leading issue in his election campaign.

But, at the last minute, he backed out of the May meeting - after learning there's no hard medical evidence linking vaccines and autism.
