How cozy. Liberal MSNBC mouthpiece Meghan Meghan, posing as the spokesperson for Tolerant Young Republicans, got an attagirl from 40-something Hollywood starlet and Obama donor Kristin Chenoweth.
Conservatives reached for their barf bags.
@gopblackchick, their self-congratulatory exchange, food for their egos. “You’re right.” / “I agree, we’re right.” / “That’s right! Yay us!”

@listeningdevAnnoying when these bimbos make the remark of ‘so over it’ ala Kardashian style when in fact, they are just getting started..

Meggie Mac and K-Chen have been pals for quite a while now.
Flashback:
Ok. Agree with her or not, Meghan McCain is a conservative who likes gays. And others. Get her book. I am going to.

Funny thing about Mizzz McCain losing her marbles over cheater Mark Sanford’s marriage hypocrisy, though.
@meghanmccain @kchenoweth Yeah because we know the McCains (John ‘n Cindy) are such shining examples of marital fidelity. #Not

Yep. Like Mark Sanford, Sen. McCain was unfaithful to his (first) wife and also opposes gay marriage. He is, in other words, the archetype of the hypocritical Republican that McCain and Chenoweth say they despise.
Despite that, exit polling indicates that a lot of young people voted for Sen. McCain in his most recent Senate campaign:
Admittedly, that was two and a half years ago. Attitudes about gay marriage have become more favorable since then.
If exit polls for the South Carolina CD-01 race are released, it will be interesting to see how Mark Sanford performed among young voters and whether gay marriage was a major consideration.
Going to be interesting to read exit polls coming out of special election in South Carolina for House District 1 #Sanford #Politics

In any case, it seems clear most voters had other things in mind at the polls than the giggly Hollywood/lib GOP elite gal pals’ gay marriage obsession.
I’d have held my nose and voted for Mark Sanford too. #SC1 did the right thing. Pelosi can’t be speaker #tcot

Sanford focused on Pelosi in run up to vote – CNN Political Ticker – CNN.com Blogs politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2013/05/01/san…
