HOT HEADLINERS

Filed under: Journalism, Politico, John McCain, Meghan McCain, Cindy McCain, Holly Bailey

Sen. John McCain’s daughter, Meghan, has posted the following video on her blog, in which she says that Politico reporters brought her mom, Cindy, a bouquet of flowers when they visited the McCain Sedona ranch and cabin this past weekend for a big Spring Break-style party.

Journalists giving presents to their interview subjects is generally frowned upon.

Newsweek’s Holly Bailey is also shown in the video with a wine glass in hand, swinging playfully on a tire swing on the McCain estate. Megan says, too, that Politico’s Jonathan Martin helped her dad barbecue some of his “famous ribs” during the soiree.

“This is much better than Washington, D.C.,” Cindy McCain is heard saying in the video.

Yeah, we bet. But, jeez, haven’t average non-elite Americans been complaining for ages that the glitzy D.C. press has gotten much too close to the politicos they cover? This Sedona Spring Break romp will do little to ease their fears.

    This is sort of outrageous. Too bad the Obama llamas don’t focus on this, rather than trying to hurt Hillary.

  1. […] By September, McCain had retooled his campaign team, started posting effective campaign videos that reminded voters of his war record and his support of the Iraq War surge. A similar strategy worked for Huckabee, who ultimately shot to the lead in the Iowa caucases after a hilariously effective YouTube clip of himself with Chuck Norris. The difference is that Huckabee siphoned votes off of Romney, while McCain succeeded at the expense of Giuliani. And now we see McCain has learned another lesson: Unlike the stuffy Dan Meyer videos, McCain has his pretty, perky daughter Meghan and her two gal pals Shannon and Heather YouTubing their campain. Who wouldn’t want to watch them? […]

  1. […] Optional: Pinch of Keating Five Spice, to taste In medium sized bowl, stir together dry seasonings, then rub liberally onto the press corps rack of ribs. Place ribs bone-side down on the grill over low heat, drizzling occasionally with lemon juice. Slow-cook for about 1 1/2 hours, buttering up on both sides. When sweetened to taste, aroma should have a rich brown “nose”. Press until tender. Continue to press until juices run clear, do not pick bones. Work the press carefully, return to grill until warmed over, checking regularly to ensure heat does not get turned up. Serve with Cindy’s Napa Cabbage Slaw. […]
