"I really was drawn to her because she’s an incredible woman and so strong and yet she is so misrepresented in the media. It was shocking to me how misrepresented she was. I don’t want to go too much into the image of her, but I think everybody knows that she was very quiet and stood silently behind her husband but, that is not who she is at all." So says Cindy McCain press secretary Laurye Blackford on why she wanted to work with the potential first lady. [wowOwow]

John McCain proved he has a sense of humor when he appeared on Saturday Night Live this weekend. Watch as the Republican pretends to be on QVC, the only channel he can afford, and sell his campaign. Tina Fey's Sarah Palin, meanwhile, sells her 2012 candidacy, or the possibility that she's going to be "the white Oprah."

Cindy McCain also appears and strokes "McCain's fine gold," as in the campaign reforming McCain-Feingold Act. Clever!

McCain also appeared during Weekend Update, during which he suggested some "last minute" tactics, like the "double maverick" and "sad old man:" "That's where I get on TV and go, 'C'mon, Obama's gonna have plenty of chances to be president! It's my turn! Vote for me!'"

Watch that, after the jump…

Our sister site Mollygood has some mean readers - look what "surgeonsgirl" cooked up in honor of Cindy McCain, whom, we suppose, SG thinks looks like the Crypt Keeper. Tsk, tsk.


John McCain and his campaign team are keeping up the attacks against Barack Obama.

It's a well-documented fact that Cindy McCain once abused prescription drugs. In fact, it was Mrs. McCain's husband, Republican Presidential hopeful John McCain, who helped break the story back in 1994.

And, according to Senator McCain, he had only recently learned about his wife's addiction. A man by the name of Tom Gosinski suggests otherwise.

Appearing on behalf of potential first lady and camp hero Cindy McCain, The View host Elisabeth Hasselbeck took a shot at Michelle Obama, suggesting the Democratic candidate's wife has something to hide:
Cindy came into our hair and make-up room fresh as can be. And unlike another wife of a political candidate who shall remain nameless, she didn't come with a list of topics that we weren't allowed to touch. Nope. That's because she has nothing to hide.

We'd go off on Hasselbeck, but we're sure her co-hosts will do a better job of it.

"In My Box Tonight Is Ernestine."


Knowing we were recording the Republican National Convention last night, a journalist friend urged us to skip Cindy McCain's speech, which this person described as "awful."

We couldn't disagree more. Yes, Mrs. McCain's sedate, somewhat disoriented delivery was lackluster, at best, but the hot mama offered some of the most unintentionally entertaining tidbits of the entire week!

Consider this wacky, overarching statement: "From the beginning of time, no matter how accomplished in other fields, women have always sought a husband with an eye to what kind of father that man would be."

Because, you know, women are nothing without a man. In fact, women should think of nothing more than settling down and helping their hubby spread his seed. Insane!

Meanwhile, we absolutely laughed our ass off when, while discussing a Rwandan woman the party flew in for a bit of color, McCain remarked, "In my box tonight is Ernestine." The camera then cut to Erenstine, a butch woman who looked like she could very well get up in Cindy's box.

Do yourselves a favor, watch the video, which we've included after the jump.

» Stolen 'Cross'?

John McCain's fond of telling a story about how, as a POW in Vietnam, one of his captors came into his hut on Christmas and drew a cross in the dirt. "We were two Christians," McCain often says, and even told the tale at Rick Warren's ranch this weekend. Well, some are wondering if the Republican presidential candidate didn't steal that story from The Gulag Archipelago by Russian novelist Alexander Solzhenitsyn, whom McCain has cited as a favorite author. On a related note, remember when Cindy McCain was accused of plagiarizing recipes? [Daily Kos]

We think the worst part of David Horsey's reactionary John McCain satire is poor Cindy McCain with the pills…

[via Huffington Post]


We previously informed you that Tim Gunn sat down with TIME for their Q&A institution, "Ten Questions With…" During the discussion, after being asked which potential first lady he preferred. Gunn took a poke at Cindy McCain's taut face. It was such good fun that we're posting the video, so you can hear it from the homo's mouth. Gunn also dishes on the dreaded sloppification of America, living on a budget and which Project Runway contestant he most loathes: Vincent Libretti.

» "Tight" Race.

TIME magazine recently asked fashion gay Tim Gunn about which potential first wife her prefers, Michelle Obama or Cindy McCain. Here's his reply: "Oh, no contest, Michelle Obama. From a fashion viewpoint, Michelle Obama looks so comfortable and relaxed in her style and her fashion, and she exudes that. She has a presence that gives you confidence in her. Cindy McCain looks like someone has twisted her pony tail into a knot and tried to give her a face lift." [TIME]

» Repeat Offender?

"Another crack is showing in the McCain campaign's attempts at crafting a down-home image. The campaign contributed a recipe to Parents magazine, "Cindy McCain's Oatmeal-Butterscotch Cookies." However, it looks like it was copied directly from the Hershey's site. The McCain campaign previously got caught copying some other recipes, purportedly from Cindy McCain herself, off of the Food Network's site." [TPM]

What do John McCain and Jane Fonda have in common? A love of the word "cunt," according to The Real McCain author Cliff Schecter.

The tell-all biography, out next month, claims that the Republican presidential hopeful used the wicked work with regard to his well-preserved wife, Cindy:

Three reporters from Arizona, on the condition of anonymity, also let me in on another incident involving McCain's intemperateness. In his 1992 Senate bid, McCain was joined on the campaign trail by his wife, Cindy, as well as campaign aide Doug Cole and consultant Wes Gullett. At one point, Cindy playfully twirled McCain's hair and said, "You're getting a little thin up there." McCain's face reddened, and he responded, "At least I don't plaster on the makeup like a trollop, you cunt."

Gawd! No wonder Cindy became a pill head! Girl, you should just drop that guy. He's going nowhere fast.

Meanwhile, to McCain - nice use of the word "trollop." It's an oldie, but a goodie. You're at least half that!
