MEGHAN MCCAIN: I Expect My Family And Sarah Palin To Be Nothing Short Of Crucified By HBO's 'GAME CHANGE'

HBO is adapting a miniseries based on Game Change, the book about the 2008 election.

But as Hollywood casts liberal actors to play all the parts, Meghan McCain doubts that it will be an accurate portrayal of what actually happened.

Game Change, the infamous bestseller written by John Heilemann and Mark Halperin, has plagued anyone directly associated with the 2008 election cycle.

The first time I heard about the book was within weeks after Obama was elected—my former press person from the campaign told me Mark Halperin, a man I had only heard of in name and was not an embed on the campaign, wanted to conduct an interview about “what really happened.”

Reporters aren’t generally known for their sensitivity and tact, but I can remember thinking, nice timing sir. They also asked everyone from my mother and her chief of staff to Rick Davis and Steve Schmidt for an interview. The only person that confirmed actually giving such an interview was my father’s longtime speechwriter and “alter ego” Mark Salter. I still have no idea what he was thinking.

Read more! Very bad language.......LOL.

Anyone here remember Joe-Bob Briggs? He used to refer to HBO as “Home BO.” Seems appropriate, somehow.

So? The only ones who will watch it are the same psychotic union thugs and KOSers who already want all conservatives executed. BFD.

And let us not forget "W."

"The film opened #4 behind The Secret Life of Bees, Beverly Hills Chihuahua, and Max Payne, respectively with $10,505,668 from 2,030 theaters with a $5,175 average.[25] The film had a budget of $25.1 million and grossed $25,534,493 in North America, and $3,401,242 internationally.[26]

IOW, when also counting marketing costs, the film lost between $20 million and $25 million dollars. LOL!

ehh, um, I would say “crucified” is a bit much, especially this close to Easter!

I noticed that Red Box is pushing that box office reject “Fair Game” about the non-outing of Valerie Plame, played by Scarlett Johansson of all people. Gimme a break.

Hollywood just won’t give up on these memes, will they?

“Who will play Meghan?”

I recommend Rosie O’Donald.

“Chaz” Bono might be a good fit.

I don’t get casting Ed Harris as McCain.
Harris reminds me of Mitch Daniels and looks nothing like the angry little geezer that ran for prez.

They should cast Mini-me from Austin Powers as McCain.

Good one. But a couple inches, too short. LOL

I think the older, slimmer, Brian Dennehy would have been a good match.
Plus he does a great job at that ‘evil’ thing.

Injunctions have been known to stop such drivel as this Game Change show,Obama used them repeatedly during his campaign.

What a load of crock. Poor Megan is a few cards short of a deck, not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

McJuan deserves to be crucified for throwing the election.

Are you saying John McCain deliberately threw the election? What do you base this on?
