Newt Gingrich doesn’t seem fazed by criticism from Meghan McCain that his campaign is just a “vanity project.”
“How would she have a clue?” asked the former Speaker of the House in a Wednesday interview with The Daily Caller.
Gingrich seemed surprised by the accusation from the Daily Beast columnist and daughter of Senator John McCain — especially since his poll numbers mirror her father’s in 2007.

the mccains are the village idiots.
Meghan needs to run for office OR the press needs to find a daughter of a dem who will trash dems.
She had no business being on the stage.
“How would she have a clue?” LOL! Good answer.
She’s such a dimwit. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, and all that...
I assume she gets a family allowance, I can't see any private employer hiring her at anything.
“Fires back”? What a b/s title. This was, and is a nothing. It’s certainly not news.
She is a joke, if anything she exposes who the real John McCain is, along with his wife.
Clash of the divas.
Good for Newt! It’s way past time someone told the little, full-of-herself twit off. She’s like David Brooks — making a living by passing herself off to the liberals as a “good” Republican.
Dang I love what Newt has to say.
I wish I had more faith that he would walk the walk and not go wobbly.
The queath queen is one mouthy and vile pretender.
Well done by Gingrich. He continues to impress.
thank you.
No one can dismiss anyone like Newt can. That was great. Baby Megs and her daddy war bucks are out of their leauge.
Gingrich-Bachman
Yes!
Can you imagine how many thousands of broken heels she’s left behind?
AGREED! He appears to be no-nonsense, speaks well, and has a long memory. However, he is damaged goods for conservatives, sitting down with Pelosi. That is unacceptable!! But I do like to hear him speak.
While Meghan McCain was speaking at the Newseum on Wednesday, Newt Gingrich was just a few miles away dismissing the Daily Beast blogger.
The Daily Caller caught up with Gingrich at the Capitol Hill Club for the Republican Lawyer of the Year awards and asked him about McCain calling his campaign a mere “vanity project.”
“How would she have a clue? I mean, everyone’s allowed to have opinions but I just spent the last nine days on the road. We’re in the process of opening offices in South Carolina, New Hampshire and Iowa and I think in yesterday’s New York Times/CBS poll I’m in third place. I’m actually exactly where her father was, in third place, at this point in 2007,” Gingrich told the Daily Caller while the cameras rolled.
“Do you think her opinion will have any sway with young Republicans?” they asked. Shaking his head and smiling, Gingrich said, “No.”
