Meghan McCain, daughter of GOP presidential candidate Sen. John McCain, calls anti-gay sentiment among some Republicans “un-American,” adding, “I am determined to build a more-inclusive GOP not by making us sound more inclusive, but by doing it.” In her Daily Beast column, McCain admonishes her party to embrace the idea of personal freedom she says is at the heart of the push for marriage equality:

Personal freedoms are what makes this country the greatest country in the world. And just like the civil-rights and feminist movements before this, the movement toward gay equality and gay marriage is one I have absolute faith will triumph over prejudices. Moreover, I believe the Republican Party has, at this moment, the opportunity to come forward and play an instrumental role in securing gay rights. That’s why I’m speaking at the Log Cabin convention and couldn’t be prouder to be doing so. And yes, I’m still a Republican. Get used to it.

Speaking of, I spoke with Citdog. Very quick conversation but I am going to drop by the happy hour for the Citadel Club on Wednesday. If I get out alive, I will let you know how he is

In other words, she wants a GOP that isn't tied to the religious right. What a concept!

Then what? You would have voted for him Jon? I don't think so, he probably would have lost by more if he hadn't embraced the radicals somewhat. As for Sarah Palin....................................................

Who knows what I would have done if McCain had run like he did in 2000.

McCain pandered to the extreme right, which, after 8 years of Bush, was a losing cause.

If the Republicans want to remain a national party, they would be wise to listen to Meghan...

I agree, but I don't think it would have changed much this election. The economic disaster just happened at a very bad time for ole Johnny.

So she feels the GOP would be better served to embrace gays instead of toe tapping for them?

If I embrace a gay, will I catch cooties?
