MEGHAN MCCAIN

President Obama makes fantastic stump speeches, but putting together an actual agenda is more complicated.

I couldn't live my life the way I do if my parents weren't supportive.

The baby boomers have dropped the ball on their burden of responsibility.

Every day of my life, I come against a conservative who wants me to shut up. I do believe I'm right and they are wrong.

I grew up in Arizona listening to Hank Williams Jr., Johnny Cash, Tammy Wynette, and Dolly Parton.

I don't think I suffer from Trump derangement syndrome in a sense that I can separate the man from the White House.

Ashlee Simpson kicking her dressing room door after getting caught lip-synching - that was interesting to watch.

I care more about my economy, national security, and fiscal conservatism than I do about what other women do with their bodies. It's not my place, and I don't believe it's the government's place, to make such decisions.

It's no secret that the blogosphere is more vicious on women than it is on men.

The America of John McCain is generous and welcoming and bold.

To be completely honest, I don't believe that Palin has any intention of actually running for president. Granted, trying to predict Sarah Palin's next move is like trying to nail Jell-O to the wall.

You're nobody unless you have a gay rumor about you. I've been hit on by women from time to time, and it might simplify my life if I were gay, but no.

I do believe that unless we start reaching out to minorities and women and honestly start supporting the LGBT community, there is no more future for the Republican party.

There are people I know who love President Trump and think that he's the greatest thing that's ever happened to America. I understand those people. I'm not shocked by them. I defend their right to love him. But I do think character and rhetoric matter.

I was with my father at his end, as he was with me at my beginning. In the thirty-three years we shared together, he raised me, taught me, corrected me, comforted me, encouraged me, and supported me in all things.

I spent almost two years trying to get my father elected president.

I am a person of great faith and idealism and have been in too many situations too many times to become an eternal pessimist regarding politics.

Every time I break up with a guy, I play 'Kerosene' in my car on repeat.

I don't fit into the traditional Republican box that the wingnuts who have hijacked my party think all Republicans should.

HBO is turning 'Game Change' into a miniseries, and they've cast Ed Harris as my dad.

Hell would freeze over before I would do a reality show. I've been offered everything you could possibly imagine, and it just doesn't interest me. You certainly won't see me dancing on TV.

We Republicans need to look at the future instead of living in the past.

My father is gone, and I miss him as only an adoring daughter can.

Much like the Tea Party, Occupy Wall Street's message has gotten wrapped up in stereotypes. The Tea Party was weighed down by the birther movement, and Occupy Wall Street has gotten looped in with hippie culture.

I want to say that since my dad has been diagnosed, I really feel like I understand the meaning of life, and it is not how you die: it is how you live.
