Meghan McCain Says Washington Doesn’t Get Millennials
Time ^ | 05-03-2014 | Maya Rhodan

“Washington is getting so many things wrong about young people,” McCain, the host of an upcoming TV series on politics for cable channel Pivot, told TIME at the Time/People pre-White House Correspondents’ Dinner cocktail party on Friday. The district, she said, needs to start paying more attention to the demographic.

Youngsters can be socially liberal and fiscally conservative, she said, but politicians such as her father, former Republican presidential candidate Sen. John McCain (R—Ariz)—can’t seem to fully grasp that. “Washington is not having a nuanced conversation about young people,” McCain says. But the host of the new late-night series hopes her show can help bring some of those conversations to the forefront, particularly as the 2014 midterm elections near.

I know a lot of young people who are doing just fine voting for old people who are supportive of freedom.

They just don't happen to be liberals like McCain.

You can’t be socially liberal and fiscally conservative, nit for long any way. At some point, something is going to give.

Well Meg, maybe that’s because there’s nothing to “get”.

The hope is that someday over half of them grow up and save America from the remainder who never will.

NOBODY can be socially liberal and fiscally conservative.

Social and Fiscal conservatism are tied at the hip, you cannot separate one from the other.

Umm, young people are stupid, almost by definition. We spend way too much time on what they want. Don’t trust anyone under 35. Oh, and Meghan McCain is every bit as smart as everyone else in that family, which is to say that she’s an idiot.

What’s to “get”? They’re like puppies. Offer them a free bone and they’ll follow you anywhere. Barry and the commie ‘RATS have them wrapped around their fingers. Free stuff trumps freedom.

Not much. This is a new strain of stupid...but conservative scientists are looking for a cure. They are also looking for a cure for “attentionwhoreihavetoshowmytitsandamanairhead syndrome”.

My thoughts exactly. At some point you have to start paying the freight.

You know what I like most about her cable TV show?

The fact that I don’t have cable.

That’s because the only thing Government wants to know about any demographic is how many tax dollars they can expunge at any given day and time!
