A brother of New York Sen. Hillary Clinton and local Democrats who backed her unsuccessful presidential campaign socialized privately Monday with a top surrogate of the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, Arizona Sen. John McCain.

The private gathering featured Carly Fiorina, Mr. McCain’s top economic adviser, and took place at the Dunmore home of political consultant Jamie Brazil, a longtime friend of Mrs. Clinton’s family who has signed on as paid national director of Mr. McCain’s Citizens for McCain Coalition.

The attendees included Tony Rodham, Mrs. Clinton’s youngest sibling, his wife, Megan, and their two children; attorney Kathleen Granahan Kane, who coordinated Mrs. Clinton’s presidential campaign in Northeast Pennsylvania during the primary election; and Virginia McGregor, sister of Scranton Mayor Chris Doherty.

1. We've All Got Brothers Like That

I have two, in fact.

[mtnester]

8. I have been unable to stop either my brother or sister

from doing stupid, idiotic things their entier life. They are in ther mid 40's now, nothing has changes. I have seen my sister, after discussing to death reasons why doing something was a bad idea, go out immediately and do that very thing....even ater she agreed it was a bad idea. I swear at times I know it is on purpose to create attention or poke a stick at someone, depending on her "mood."

2. I wasn't aware that her brother could only support Obama?

Isn't he an adult?

:shrug:

[99th_Monkey]

3. Why are ANY "Hillary supporters" meeting with a "top McCain surrogate"? Nevermind her crazy brother

[Clintonista2]

5. I don't know about you but

If my sister were running for president as a Republican, I would support her. Blood is thicker than politics in my family. Maybe it's the same way in theirs? :shrug:

[dkf]

7. Actually she was raised Republican, wasn't she?

I guess maybe it is reasonable to think that the family voted Democrat just for her, but really they are Republicans.

[lojasmo]

10. His sister isn't running for president.

She reportedly supports the presumptive nominee.

[Clintonista2]

11. You know what I mean

Don't be obtuse.

[lojasmo]

17. Hill's brother is at a McCain event because....

Clinton lost to Obama? Your statement makes absolutely no sense.

[ingac70]

13. I would never vote Republican under any circumstance.

Not even if it was my own Daddy.

Fuck the nation over for a family member? Not me.

[my3boyz]

4. She probably told him to. I don't care what she says in public

she does not want Obama to win.

9. That's right...

Hillary is the choice of a special cooperation between the Illuminati and representatives from Betelgeuse who have been fighting a war with forces from the Orion belt, who support Obama. This war has been going on for about 33 trillion years through various dimensions in our universe with the goal of gathering our flatulence to power their nacho factories. The final stand will take place in Denver and our fate will be decided. My advice: stay away from the bean dip.

[Clintonista2]

14. LOL! Don't let blm hear you say that

He'll believe you!

[snake in the grass]

15. Am I to assume

that you don't believe when all the evidence is clearly there? Do me a favour anyway: stay away from that bean dip until after the convention.

You will thank me in the end.

[pnwmom]

16. She has no control over that brother.

He's always been a thorn in her side.

[cboy4]

6. uh-oh, you know what that means

[MrSlayer]

12. McCain is picking Hillary as his VP?

Maybe, if you are completely out of your mind.
