Meghan McCain, the daughter of John McCain, is a blogger. From her blog, Meghan McCain has been spending time following her dad on the political trail.
While John McCain has pointed his finger at Barack Obama, with the celeb ads, for being a celebrity similar to that of Britney Spears or Paris Hilton, his daughter Meghan McCain, has been out trying to become one.
Meghan McCain and ‘The Hills’ star Heidi Montag were spotted eating lunch together at the Ivy in Santa Monica this weekend.
Paris Hilton, one of the 2 celebrities who has been used in John McCain Celeb Ad attack on Barack Obama, has responds with her own video. The other celebrity mention in the ad is Britney Spears.
Paris Hilton’s mother, Kathy Hilton, is angry over John McCain’s Celeb Ad.
“It is a complete waste of the country’s time and attention at the very moment when millions of people are losing their homes and their jobs,” Kathy Hilton said. “And it is a completely frivolous way to choose the next president of the United States.”
John McCain, the Republican presidential candidate, said last week that his campaign ad mocking Democrat Barack Obama with images of Paris Hilton and singer Britney Spears was part of an attempt to inject humor into the presidential race.
The ad plays on Barack Obama’s popularity by dismissing him as a mere celebrity, like Hilton and Spears. John McCain on Friday denied that his campaign had taken a negative turn, saying, “We think it’s got a lot of humor in it, we’re having fun and enjoying it.”
The John McCain Celeb Ad in question:
The Barack Obama campaign has said the ad is proof that John McCain would rather launch negative attacks than debate important issues.
Kathy Hilton, however called the ad “a complete waste of the money John McCain’s contributors have donated to his campaign.” She and her husband donated a total of $4,600 to McCain’s campaign earlier this year.
Eric Cantor, House Chief Deputy Minority Whip, has been asked to provide “personal documents” to John McCain steps up his search for a running mate.
John McCain spokesman Brian Rogers said the campaign would have “no comment on anything related to the vice presidential issue.”
Virginia Rep Eric Cantor, 45, has been a forceful critic of Democrat Barack Obama’s resistance to lifting the federal ban on oil and gas drilling off the Atlantic and Pacific coasts.
Eric Cantor not only provides youth to the ticket but also provide John McCain with an important asset in Virginia, a state that last backed a Democrat for president in 1964 but which both parties are now targeting as a battleground.
If John McCain wins, Eric Cantor would become the first Jewish vice president.
Among others believed to be getting close looks from McCain: Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and former Ohio Rep. Rob Portman for McCain.
John McCain, the Republican presidential candidate, is defending his position switch in favor of U.S. offshore oil drilling.
He believed he had made the right decision at a time of record-high gasoline prices and believes he has a chance to win California in the November election.
“I think the environmental situation is today — that we could probably do that,” John McCain said. “But I don’t want to override the state of California.”
The Democrats are trying to use his policy reversal on offshore drilling to portray him as a Republican who, if elected president, would be another George W. Bush.
Paula Paula is now making headlines as a Clinton supporter who has defected to back John McCain.
Paula Abeles claimed that Obama supporters have been “smearing and threatening” her. However neither Fox News, nor Paula Abeles, offered any proof or evidence.

This is an important campaign announcement from Barack Obama. He talks about the decision to opt-out of the broken public financing system.
By rejecting public financing, Barack Obama now faces no legal spending limits as he moves to the final stage of the race against the presumptive Republican nominee, John McCain.
John McCain said he would accept public financing, meaning he will be restricted to $84.1 million in direct spending in the two months between the Republican convention and election day.
“A leader we can believe in” is John McCain new slogan? Well, that is John McCain’s latest speech titled “A Leader we can believe in”.
Here is what John McCain said:
“The American people didn’t get to know me yesterday, as they are just getting to know Senator Obama,” McCain said. “They know I have a long record of bipartisan problem-solving. They’ve seen me put our country before any president, before any party, before any special interest, before my own interest.”
“He is an impressive man who makes a great first impression,” McCain said. “But he hasn’t been willing to make the tough calls, to challenge his party, to risk criticism from his supporters, to bring real change to Washington. I have.”
“I opposed it because I know we won’t achieve energy independence by repeating the mistakes of the last half-century. That’s not change we can believe in,” McCain said, once again evoking Obama’s campaign theme, “Change we can believe in.”
