Meghan McCain Blasts Tea Party Movement, Palin on 'The View'
Meghan McCain had some choice words for Sarah Palin, former Rep. Tom Tancredo and the conservative Tea Party movement as a whole during her appearance Monday on ABC's "The View."

~snip~

"It's innate racism, and I think it's why young people are turned off by this movement," McCain said. "And I'm sorry -- revolutions start with young people, not with 65-year-old people talking about literacy tests and people who can't say the word vote in English."

~snip~

"This rhetoric will continue to turn off young voters, and anybody that says different is smoking something -- period," she said.

~snip~

2. Once again --
if people like Megan McCain become the future of the GOP -- I can live with that. She is light years ahead of the Teabgger/Palin crowd.

4. I think that she
may end up in the Democratic Party by 2012. And I'm okay with that.
