Cindy McCain
John McCain's daughter is looking for love in all the wrong places.
Over at The Daily Beast, they're having a good old time thanks to John McCain. Typical of the liberal media to turn the screws to an old war hero who got pushed aside in the name of change and… Correction, the article is about Meghan McCain's pitiful dating life after her dad (Republican Senator John McCain) lost the election. Oooo, let's pour a little salt on their wounds, because we (the liberal media elite) are a bunch of sore winners… Correction, it's a blog about Meghan McCain's pitiful dating life. Just what we need, some flaming left-wing … Read More
The National Enquirer may have broken a scandal about John McCain's wife.
Have you heard the news today? According to the National Enquirer (the terribly reliable Enquirer not your daddy's lie factory, we're being led to believe), Cindy McCain was seen getting lovey with another dude.
Before we go any further, we'd like to state that we hate that the National Enquirer is now a source that we can't completely discount. Damn you, John Edwards' libido. Was that Sarah Palin affair that they alleged ever proved or disproved?
The Senator's wife has been photographed in the company of a man that has been described as a "washed up 80's … Read More

The lack of sparks between John and Cindy suggests his one true passion is cutting taxes.
Huffington Post has rounded up a slideshow of Grandma and Grandpa...oops, I mean, John McCain and his wife, Cindy...showing public displays of affection. Compared to the Obamas, who sizzle and crackle with passion, the Republican couple could use a little, um, stimulation.
Just looking at the lack of sparks between John and Cindy, suggests the would-be president's one true passion is cutting taxes. Little pecks on the cheek here, pats on the arm there, a couple tight-lipped smiles -- the McCains are downright prudish!
But I'm not trying to suggest anything particularly snotty or nasty here … Read More
Cindy McCain's half-sister and the politics of half-siblings
In many families, brothers from different mothers (or fathers) never give a second thought to the "half" nature of their relationship.
Not so with Cindy McCain and half-sister Kathleen Hensley Portalski. The pair, daughters of Jim Hensley, founder of the beer company that Cindy oversees, sit on opposite sides of the political fence.
In an interview with US Weekly, Portalski voiced her support for Barack Obama, saying that she and her half-sister share different political viewpoints. Portalski, whose mother was Hensley's first wife, described Cindy as "standoffish" to the weekly. She also said the potential First Lady … Read More
Meet John McCain's ex-wife, the woman he 'callously left behind.'
"There is another Mrs. McCain" and she "casts a ghostly shadow over the Senator's presidential campaign."
So says London's Daily Mail newspaper in a twisted smear piece excoriating the Republican presidential candidate over his decades-old divorce.
Indeed, life-sized Barbie doll Cindy McCain, she of the flaxen-hair and bright white teeth, was not always the bride at the senator's side. McCain left for the Vietnam War married to another woman -- Carol McCain -- with whom he had three children. But their marriage of 15 years disintegrated in 1980 and married his current wife -- blonde beer … Read More
There has never been a single president. And for good reason. It's a tough...
One presidential election. Eight frontrunners. You may know their stands on abortion, the Iraq war, and whether two men should be allowed to say “I do.” But what do you know about their romantic relationships? Barbara Kantrowitz investigates which couple is most likely to captivate American voters—and which union is best equipped to survive four years in the White House.
NOT SO LONG AGO, WHAT HAPPENED BEHIND CLOSED DOORS in the White House was nobody’s business. Some of most celebrated presidents in U.S. history—Thomas Jefferson, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, John F. Kennedy—enjoyed a little action on the side without having to … Read More
