Meghan McCain says tea party has dad ‘depressed’ and ‘frustrated’
BIZPAC Review ^ | 10/25/2013

Sen. John McCain’s daughter says her dad is “depressed” and “frustrated” with the tea party faction of the Republican Party, which she called “the hyper-conservative wing.”

A state of mind many in the tea party can relate to in their radical pursuit of a more fiscally responsible, limited federal government.

“We’re both frustrated with the idea that only the hyper-conservative wing of the party is going to represent the masses,” Meghan McCain said during an interview with ABC and Yahoo News.

Ms. McCain, who has her own reality show “Raising McCain,” said the last time her father was so depressed about the state of politics was after his failed 2008 presidential bid, according to the Washington Times.

“He is so depressed. He is so downtrodden,” Ms. McCain said. “The way he’s talking about it, how he’s never seen it this bad in his 30-plus years in office.”

An indication that McCain grew accustomed to a more apathetic constituency willing to place blind trust in progressive politicians on both sides of the aisle who have steered this country to the precipice of financial ruin.

As for her 77-year-old father running for reelection in 2016, something McCain recently said he is considering, his daughter said she has reservations about it.

“My father has more energy than I do,” Ms. McCain said. “So it is not his age, it is just the idea of having another dirty tea party election.”

After all, one can only take so much of accountability.

Maybe he’ll steal all her ice cream and oreos and she can lose a little weight while he pudges out.

Probably most frustrated because he’s not a Democrat.

McCain is one of the best at degrading and demeaning those Republicans who disagree with him. Am I supposed to care that the Tea Party upsets him?? Boo Hoo.

McCain the only thing you’ve done correctly, for the last eight years, was to nominate Sarah Palin as your Vice Presidential nominee.

Every other thing you do, is irritating.

Stop being irritating.

McCain has met the reality that he is no longer relevant.

I hate seeing such a sweet old guy all depressed and frustrated. He should resign immediately and apply for a job as a Wal-Mart greeter.

Meghan, honey, maybe you’re dad is “depressed” and “frustrated” because he is so wrong on so many issues.

Suggest he retire . . . . . . . . for the good of the country!

I think it more likely that his daughter’s low IQ has him depressed.
