Something about that guy causes my eyebrow to raise. Don't know what - it just does.

pretty extreme right winger. Meghan years ago was a lot more rational. She has become a screaming harpy the Las couple of years.

question in my mind is will rumpie insist his pal Arpaio get the job, or will he appoint Ward or McSally?

She may even be more conservative than her father. I am sure she thinks Kavanaugh is great. Meghan says that she is “super pro-life.”

Her smiling face is a prominent sight at the Republican convention this week, but Cindy McCain has broken with her husband and his running mate Sarah Palin on abortion rights.

When asked by CBS news last night whether she wanted to overturn Roe v Wade, the 1973 supreme court ruling that permitted women to seek abortions in America, Cindy McCain responded: "No, no."

....excellent choice to replace her husband. AZ Gov Ducey by the AZ Constitution has to pick a Republican and she would be without controversy and it would be Senator McCain being replaced with Senator McCain. Its something that has precedent of spouses being chosen and who go on to do a great job continuing the work of their spouse and for the citizens.

I also think Cindy McCain is her own person. And I am sure she will always remember how her husband was treated by others and who his true friends are and she would also make sure to keep the McCain name associated with patriotism and honor.
