AMERICAblog News| A great nation deserves the truth —
Meghan McCain is right. Karl Rove is creepy. We've written that, among other things about Rove, for years. But, it's one thing for AMERICAblog to blast Rove. It's a whole new ball game when GOP activist Meghan McCain takes on the creepy GOP establishment so publicly: ...

I May Be Creepy

Meghan McCain Says Karl Rove Creeps Her Out By Following Her on Twitter
FullosseousFlap's Dental Blog —
... How does dear Meghan know that Karl rove doesn’t have a staffer handle the followers for him?
Karl Rove follows me on Twitter. That’s creepy. I joined Twitter a few months ago; so far, it has been a liberating way to transition from political to personal blogging. It’s allowed me to share the less-serious aspects and humorously uncensored moments of my life. But there’s also been a downside: I am now being followed by Karl Rove, and my local sheriff, and God knows how many other political pundits. We need to take Twitter back from the creepy people. ...

Rove and Twitter
At-Largely —
I have to disagree with this - although it is creepy : Karl Rove follows me on Twitter. That’s creepy. I joined Twitter a few months ago; so far, it has been a liberating way to transition from political to personal blogging. It’s allowed me to share the less-serious aspects and humorously uncensored moments of my life. But there’s also been a downside: I am now being followed by Karl Rove, and my local sheriff, and God knows how many other political pundits. We need to take Twitter back from the creepy people.

The Accomplished Meghan McCain
Riehl World View —
... I guess I can't actually write a post on the accomplishments of Meghan McCain. It would be blank. Graduating college certainly doesn't amount to the kind of accomplishment that should give one some sort of special license today. And other than that, being born to John McCain is really all she has managed to accomplish at this point in her life. Hopefully she'll do better when, or if she ever grows up, assuming there is a serious, intelligent and thoughtful woman in there somewhere. She isn't displaying that at this point, obviously. ...
Then why be on Twitter at all?
Hot Air » Top Picks —
... There are two phenomena that I confess to not “getting” these days: Twitter and Megan McCain. Both of them seem to be fun and diverting, but neither seem to serve much purpose outside of entertainment. Both converged in an odd story which made me wonder exactly what Ms. McCain thinks that Twitter does: “Karl Rove follows me on Twitter. That’s creepy,” she said. “I joined Twitter a few months ago; so far, it has been a liberating way to transition from political to personal blogging. It’s allowed me to share the less serious aspects and humorously uncensored moments of my ...

Caught on Twitter: Karl Rove Thanks Blogger for Trashing Meghan McCain
Politics Daily —
... John McCain, MediaOn Monday, I wrote about Meghan McCain's critique of Karl Rove's Twitter feed, among others. To make a point about the right's deranged reaction to Meg, I linked to a particularly vicious rant by conservative blogger The College Politico. In the 12 paragraphs of his post, the guy calls her an imbecile, idiotic, clueless, and compares her to a 5 year-old. As far as I know, Karl Rove hasn't publicly responded to Meghan's Daily Beast column, but I have learned that he did read The College Politico's anti-Meg ...

The Latest on Air America —
... Age: 24 Political Lineage: Daughter of Senator John McCain Most Influential Position to Date: Blogger for The Daily Beast Where She Could End Up: As the host of her own show on MSNBC This telegenic Columbia grad just keeps on surprising us. True to the new politics, her jump-off forum wasn’t Meet The Press —but The View and her own blog. She’s not shy (witness her takedown of Karl Rove) and she may end up being a serious Democratic candidate before too long. Even though she claims to be a Republican, it’s not hard to see that she could be a credible Dem commentator ...
