(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."

Oh the hugh ugly manatee.
You know it’s bad when a ditzy blonde honky plays the race card on you.

Kids !!!!!
What a *****. Like father, like daughter.
When you look dumb ass up in the dictionary, you see a picture of Meghan McCain. John must slap himself silly wondering what kind of idiot he raised
RINO’s: hurtling toward irrelevance.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
Yeah meghen, crying racism is getting a little old....... yawn, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Yeah, it’s bad, you’re right. Hey Megan honey: SHUT YOUR FAT STUPID MOUTH AND GO AWAY! YOU DON”T SPEAK FOR US, OK??
Reagan had Patti and Ron Jr.
Can’t always control the stupid things your kids say/do.
“Reagan had Patti and Ron Jr.
Can’t always control the stupid things your kids say/do.”
McCain is on the same page as his kids.
Dear Meghan,
STFU
Thanks,
Dad
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.
Nuff said...........shes a spoiled rich kid liberal. Her dad is a RINO. Why waste pixels on'em.
Will someone please take one for the team and get this poor, lonely girl laid so she will just shut up.
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!
A 'Time for Choosing' eh, Sarah?
I think Levi Johnston is single now...
Who really cares what Meghan has to say?
She is actually a conservative’s best friend as all she does is cast a horrible light on RINOs.
I seem to remember hearing him say he thought there was nothing wrong with the democrat agenda. That says it all.
Like father like daughter. Both of them useless trash...except to the dems. They are quite useful for the dems.
You remember correctly.
"[Conservatives are] going to destroy the f-ing [Republican] party...
Why would I want to be the leader of a party of such a-holes?"
U.S. SEN. JOHN MCCAIN, UNKNOWN
"I think the Democratic Party is a fine party, and I have
no problems with it, in their views and their philosophy."
U.S. SEN. JOHN MCCAIN, 02 APR. 2004
"I have to tell you, [Obama] is a decent person, a person that you
do not have to be scared [of] as president of the United States."
U.S. SEN. JOHN MCCAIN, 10 OCT. 2008
“I seem to remember hearing him say he thought there was nothing wrong with the democrat agenda. That says it all.”
Yep. He almost campaigned for Obama when he told people there was nothing to worry about with an Obama Presidency and his attacks on any GOP org who attacked Obama.
There he goes again. During the election McCain threw the conservatives under the bus. Now through his daughter he is throwing the Tea Party people under the bus. He won’t have the conservative support and the tea party support.
He learned nothing the last time around and is making all the same mistakes.
He is as good as gone. Senator Hayworth is a done deal.

Yeah, Meghan, it's called being a Democrat.
That has a ring to it. I'm not from Arizona, but I sure like JD. Wasn't he an AAU boxer or something similar when he was a kid?
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
I live here in Phoenix and McCain is running these absolutely ridiculous ads. i mean they are so bad in that they are so amateurishly misleading.He is running a ton of them. He must be terrified of Hayworth.
I listen to kfyi radio, that is a huge statino here. You can listen at kfyi.com. In the mid to late afternoon he runs his ads. They are positively stupid.If this all McCain has, he is toast.
She is very perceptive and observant. Does anyone doubt Tancredo is a racist? I hope this is the end of his career in politics.
Why in the world does anyone care about what this woman says??
She’s obviously not the sharpest knife in the drawer, as little education or experience. I just don’t get it.
Just cause her daddy’s a senator & ran for president. Somehow, that inferred some kind of aura on her & made what comes out of her mouth interesting to the rest of us? Come on!
Meghan McCain gives new meaning to the words
“Pork Barrel Politics”
I’m sorry...was that wrong? Am I being mean again???
After November of 2010, she and all the other dumbasses like her will shut their pie-holes... at least that’s the hope. :-)
Welcome back, good brother. God bless.
“...she and all the other dumbasses like her ...”
Nice rack, though...[grinning]
To the AZ freepers - does JD have a realistic chance to win?
man to pigs, or simply to barrels ???
“She is very perceptive and observant. Does anyone doubt Tancredo is a racist? I hope this is the end of his career in politics.”
You can’t be serious.
Thanks for the kind word. I REALLY appreciate that. It’s good to be back.
You cannot be serious about my not being serious. Did you hear what Tancredo said? There is no way around his being racist. None. He is a racist. I hope he is voted out of office for good.
“You cannot be serious about my not being serious.”
I can’t take anyone who views anything McCain’s daughter says beyond the time of day - provided suitable verification is provided - as anything worthy of note as being particularly serious in intellect. That’s why I gave you the benefit of the doubt as to a sarcasm tag.
Tancredo was right. You and those like you are wrong.
“I hope he is voted out of office for good.”
I’ll send YOU the bill for your uneducated Marxist-leaning friends, then. I hope McCain - and the rest of the progressive, traitorous, scum - is voted out of the country!
In Texas, the recruiters on college campuses are having problems recuiting young Republicans. This is one of the reasons they give along with a few other reasons. I am so sorry to see that we are not recruiting like we used to. Though the recruiter I spoke to said this really runs in cycles and this will turn around in time. Gives me hope.
Well thank you so much for the opportunity for civil debate. I stated the obvious. But I thank you for your reply. Maybe neither of us are “wrong”..maybe our opinions differ. I stand by mine. For good reason.
