Sen. John McCain's daughter says the tea party revolution within the Republican Party has left him in a state of emotional distress.
"I’ve never heard him this depressed other than maybe after the ‘08 election," Meghan McCain said. "He’s so depressed, so down-trodden. The way he’s talking about it, he's never seen it this bad in his 30-plus years in office."
Meghan, who describes herself as a liberal Republican, said she shares his sense of despondency.
"We’re both frustrated with the idea that only the hyper-conservative wing of the party is going to represent the masses,” said McCain, 29, who spoke to ABC News about her father and her reality show, "Raising McCain." The senator's daughter also said she was surprised by Arizona's senior senator recent comments that, at 77 years of age, he is considering another run for the Senate — but not because of his age.
"My father has more energy than I do and I legitimately say that, so it’s not his age, it's just the idea of having another dirty tea party election," she said.
But she says she has no intentions of ever trying to fill her father's shoes or run for any public office.
"Women have to give up so much to run for office, which maybe makes me a hypocrite, because I think more women should be in office," McCain said. "I always say, I want more tattoos and I don’t plan on getting married anytime soon so I think those two things might automatically make me not eligible for running for office."

Liberal Repub = Marxist Repub just like her daddy.
Pray America is Waking Up
Yeah, well we feel the same way toward him. So why doesn’t he get out and don’t let the door slam in the behind as he leaves. He has done more harm to the GOP than we will ever know.
The Hanoian Candidate.
McCain and his daughter need to become Democrats. They would be much happier - and so would we...
I am depressed and downtrodden because McCain is the GOP senator from my state.
Stuff it daughter. You know as well as we do he was chosen by the elites to lose the election.
If Meghan and her father joined Democrats (formally) they would discover they 'fit'.
McCain and Meghan would also discover there are NO MAVERICKS allowed on the dem side.
The press never quotes a dem who trashes dems. So if McCain pulled the same routine over there that he has with us, he'd be an outcast... same with his daughter who can't trash us enough.
And that is exactly what will happen if the Republicans manage to get 51 seats in the Senate.
He is the Hanoi version of the Manchurian Candidate. He is their mole destroying the Republican Party.
McCain ought to be depressed because he was the milquetoast moderate candidate that allowed the Kenyan socialist to become POTUS. Ditto for Romney.
If he’s so depressed, maybe he should be seen by a shrink. We already know he’s a danger to others. I’d hate to see the bugger cut his wrists or hang up.
Senile dementia can be depressing. He needs to be in a home.
If daddy is in such a state then he needs to quit politics..it would be good for him and us..He might as well think of this since the Tea Party is going to be around for a long time..
As far as his daughter goes she seems to be doing fine she has a new book out and is trying to let her democrat friends know she is with them all the way..I know about the book she was on one of the shows I watch.
So resign already. We don't deserve another mental case in Washington.

- I cannot find it - but there is a YouTube Video of a very polite Maria Shriver (journalist) attempting to ask an extremely nasty Senator John McCain a question backstage at some event that I cannot recall
- McCain displays his insane screaming anger not realizing he was being video recorded

- Perhaps one of you good Freepers could find and post it here on FR - Thanks!
