Meghan McCain and her senator father, John, have something in common: Neither can say whether they would vote for Sarah Palin come 2012.
Ms. McCain, who has gained prominence for her Daily Beast articles, appeared on CNN last night and couldn’t tell Roland Martin whether she would back a potential Palin presidential ticket. Here’s the exchange, via GOP12:
MARTIN: Let’s talk about Governor Sarah Palin. She’s still in the news, whether it’s her former — I don’t know if it was son-in-law-to-be — talking and things along those lines.
A lot of folks are saying she should be the choice for 2012. Should she run, and will you support her running for president or for the GOP nomination in 2012?
MCCAIN: I honestly don’t think that’s a relevant question. I have to find out who is running in 2012, I mean, what — there’s broad personalities that happen. And it’s four years from now. A lot of things can happen. A lot of things can change. And I couldn’t possibly make a prediction about 2012 right now.
MARTIN: But is she someone who you could conceivably vote for because of what she stands for?
MCCAIN: I don’t know. I have to see who else is on the table.
John McCain earlier this month refused to say he’d back Palin. The senator, who picked Palin as his running mate last year, said he wanted to see who else would make a White House bid. Clearly the McCain and Palin camps still aren’t on the best of terms.
