(CNN) Sen. John McCain's daughter called into question the political stature of the Tea Party movement Monday and sharply criticized a former congressman for his controversial comments at a recent major gathering of these conservative activists.
Former Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colorado, slammed President Obama on the first night of the Tea Party convention last week in Nashville. Tancredo, known for his outspoken views on illegal immigration and his disdain for Sen. McCain, charged during his speech that "People who could not even spell the word 'vote', or say it in English, put a committed socialist ideologue in the White House. His name is Barack Hussein Obama."
Tancredo also expressed relief that Sen. McCain, the 2008 Republican presidential nominee, lost his White House bid. "Thank God John McCain lost the election," Tancredo said.
On Monday, Meghan McCain fired back.
"People were saying that this is the new movement in the Republican Party," McCain said during an appearance on 'The View.' "I did not want to go [to last week's convention]. I have (a) very much different, ideological differences with them."
And she described Tancredo's comments as "innate racism."

McCain is on the same page as his kids.

My note to the blog writer Martina Martina,
McCain's daughter doesn't mean anything to anyone but her family. You writing about this is like peeing in the wind.
The Tea Party will applaud and laud the principles of conservative American people from coast to coast. And they will be the big winner in Nov 2010 and beyond. Check us out April 15th and in DC July 4th.
The McCains are irrelevant and so is your article.

“I know that no one can really explain sexual attraction and why you are drawn to someone or not but at this point in time, nothing kills my libido quite like discussing politics
. So where does that leave me, and who exactly am I attracted to? Lets just say Im spending a lot of time writing and even more time with my girlfriends.” -Meghan McCain blog
Will someone please take one for the team and get this poor, lonely girl laid so she will just shut up.
To: rabscuttle385
The McCains are has-beens and hopefully J.D. Hayworth will knock that whole dysfunctional family out of politics this year and they can go into political obscurity like the Bush family and (hopefully in 2012) the Hussein Obama family. Out with the old and in with the new! The Tea Party is finally something different than the same Republi-Crat stalemate we’ve had for so long!
