jgh:
Sorry, but the way Meghan McCain came across on The Tonight Show was embarrassing for anyone who has two brain cells to rub together. I may spend a portion of my day talking like a stoned idiot into my computer, but you can sure as hell bet that I can clean up my act in a hot second if asked to represent my family at Thanksgiving dinner, let alone on The Tonight Show. Not that we’re not all guilty of getting a case of the “Omigawdlykes” from time to time, but homegirl seemed to think there was something real cute about the whole bit. I just kept thinking about how much I missed that ugly teenage Chelsea Clinton. Yeah, I suppose it would be an added bonus if whatever capable candidate had an “average-sized” daughter, but it’s certainly not something that I would put on the very, very short list of things McCain actually has going for him.Superficially speaking:
This is going to sound more passive-aggressive and its totes not meant that way, but as a girl who would be “plus size” in Hollywood (read: sort of chubby!) it’s nice to see fellow chubster Meghan McCain workin’ the curves and looking quite fetching and confident.
Sometimes you have to take non-size-2 role models where you can get them.
Her dad’s recent fumblings are another manner, but I like her blog, and she seems smart.
