Recently I got round to checking out the blog of Meghan McCain (daughter of John). She is traveling with her father on the campaign trail and posting about her experience.

I enjoyed it more than I expected. It's not a thinly-veiled exercise in campaign communication, as these things can be. In fact there's hardly any political stuff on it. It's just a very personal, day-to-day insight into what it's like to be on the trail, with cheeky shots of the candidate and his team at work and play. It captures the spirit of camaraderie in a tight team.

Ms McCain herself comes across as a mildly ditzy girl who, after Cyndi Lauper, just wants to have fun. You suspect that she and Chelsea Clinton would have little to say to each other. But she seems charmingly ingenuous and after spending a few minutes on the blog I rather liked her.

I writing along with writing to my senators to not agree with this bailout of AIG. The Federal government should not bail out this private business. If they fail, just like so many other companies have done, it shuld be a lesson learned. These companies pay millions to the CEOs, and could not care about the business or the people that work or have invested their hard earned money. I hope that you will pass this on. I am praying for a Win in November. I love Sarah Palin, what a breath of fresh air.
