Cindy McCain Wields Quiet Influence on Replacement
August 29, 2018 at 6:48 am EDT By Taegan Goddard

“Sen. John McCain’s widow Cindy hasn’t expressed any desire to serve out her late husband’s term in Washington — but she will wield immense influence over the selection of his replacement,” Politico reports.

“More than a dozen McCain family friends and Republicans familiar with the search said that while Cindy McCain isn’t expected to take an active political role, Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey wants to avoid alienating her as he heads into a tough reelection fight.”

1. Better not be that hate filled daughter. Shes insufferable and knows very little of what she

thinks she knows. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing. And this highlights..."A little knowledge" The View isnt where we train Senators of the USA. Sorry about their poor dad but, the US needs competent people now more than ever. On top of it, she adores don ivan. No way. Pretty sure SHE cant pass a security clearance.

2. She would be better than many of the other R options

3. You don't watch the View then ? There'd be many who would dispute your claim !

[oberliner]

6. The other options supposedly being considered are Kirk Adams, Barbara Barret, and John Kyl

Which one of them do you think would be better than McCain's daughter?

[OnDoutside]

9. From watching her in action, I don't see how she is any better. She has been a staunch Trump

defender, which considering the way Trump treated her father, it says all anyone needs to know about her morality.

10. Not a fan of hers - but all the options are bad

I don't think she is the worst of the several very bad ones.

[OnDoutside]

13. What evidence do you have that she is any better ?

[oberliner]

14. She will occasionally espouse reasonable views

And self-identifies as a progressive Republican, whatever that means.

16. A stopped clock is right twice a day ! I'm sure you could find the same for the others.

15. I guess you have not watched any of the almost daily

meltdowns and/or temper tantrums that McCain has had on The View. She acts like she is so picked upon and can't stand it when people stand up to her idiot nonsense. If I remember correctly, years ago she seemed fairly rational, well those days are gone. She is married to Ben Domench and she admitted, on The View, that her father's illness pushed her to get married faster than she normally would have. Her husband is pretty ultra right wing and seems to have brought her over to the dark side (although she would never admit it).

If Meghan's last name was not McCain I doubt that she would have gotten the gig on The View. If it wasn't for her Dad, I doubt that she would have been able to keep gig once the meltdowns/temper tantrums began. It seems like they hired Abby Huntsman to prop her up.

Meghan McCain does not have what it takes to hold political office.

4. Maybe

Maybe not. The angst of that one is on display daily.

[oberliner]

7. There are far worse Republicans that might be selected

Remember, whoever he picks is going to be someone we won't like.

8. Im just going to stick w what i said.

Thanks for your comment though. Have a good day today O.
PS...Why not Mrs Mccain? Id much prefer her.

[oberliner]

11. Understood

I think Cindy McCain has said she doesn't want the job.

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

12. Yes. but, minds can be changed. She just lost her husband. The pain is going to linger, we'll

see how it goes. Arizona has to pop its head out of its collective A (and many other states) and lose this "Id rather be russian than let a D win" mentality. Its as unamerican as the attack on 911.

5. That likely just rules out Arapaio and Ward

I’m worried about it being justice Lopez.
