Meghan McCain may leave the GOP

Nov. 16, 2012 3:34pm Eddie Scarry

Meghan McCain, daughter of 2008 Republican Presidential Nominee John McCain, writes in The Daily Beast that she may abandon the GOP:

We can’t let the Tea Party bully us any longer. We can’t keep worrying about ultraconservative white male voters. At the end of the day, I still believe I’m on the right side of history, and we can’t let this party sink away. We can and we must evolve. I don’t know exactly how yet, but I for one am ready to spend the next four years helping us get there.

And if we don’t move forward, adapt, and become relevant again, the Republican Party isn’t going to survive. It will just continue to alienate more moderate voters like myself. If I don’t see some changes in the next four years, I’m going to consider registering as an Independent in 2016.

“This party” sunk years ago when it became progressive lite. The only reason it lives at all is the hard work of the Tea Party the past few years.

This is not unexpected after all Ms MsCain inherited the mantel of Republican. She did not come to it as a reflection of what she believes. She did not call herself a Conservative because after reflection she determined that she is in simpatico with Conservative principals.
Ms McCain Offers to Us the True Example of a Republican In Name Only.
I say this not as a Pejorative but purely as descriptive.

Don’t understand this–and similar rants–about so-called Tea Party power politics; Romney was NOT a Tea Party favorite. Have we gotten to the point where analysis can ignore the obvious?

ALL should be INDEPENDENT!
Intellegent thinkers not tied to party lines…
Voters with conservative moral values and ideals….
just an oppinion of a free willed, free thinking American…not an executive mandate.

OK…see ya’. You have a problem with the TEA party? What – you don’t want less government in your life, you want to pay more taxes and you prefer enslavement to living in liberty?

Ms. McCain doesn’t understand the TEA party and other constitutionalists because she’s hung up on on a different set of morality concerns. It would be worthwhile to try separating the discussions into what anthropologists have suggested are the six clusters of moral concerns—care/harm, fairness/cheating, liberty/oppression, loyalty/betrayal, authority/subversion, and sanctity/degradation.

For sure, both political parties have what I consider morally wrong and often disgusting planks/elements. It’s time to focus on ideological and moral principles. If we did, Ms. McCain would in fact have a new Republican Party, but those of us with TEA party and libertarian values would be standing right there with her.

This is getting as life threatening dangerous for white men as anything I can think off—I have never read or heard at anytime in history one group who was demonized more than what I am beginning to see of the demonization and isolation practices on the white man as I am seeing now.. No wait,, the Nazi did a pretty similar job against the Jews in 1930’s Germany… Think about it.. Newsweek even promotes it without so much of a wimper from dumb whitey….You’re Old, You’re White and You’re FINISHED

My, this P.O.S. could not change our minds. I would rather be jailed and/or executed for my beliefs than follow these progressives into the eternity that awaits them. Good luck, (yer gonna’ need luck, because God has nothing to do with your beliefs), in your new career doing the same thing you are doing now, just with a different label. BTW, you aren’t even qualified for the job you have, you spoiled, shallow, uninformed little valley girl.
