McCain daughter won't comment on Palin

MUNCIE, Ind. (WANE) - The daughter of Sarah Palin's old running mate was in Muncie on Monday night, the eve of the release of Palin's autobiography.

Meghan McCain, the daughter of Arizona Senator John McCain, is a popular political blogger these days.

Monday, she was at Ball State talking to students about the future of the Republican Party.

But before she did, NewsChannel 15 was the only Fort Wayne station to catch up with her.

We asked for her thoughts on Sarah Palin's new book, including Palin's claims in it that McCain's staffers muzzled her during the campaign.


"I really want to read it first and hear exactly what she says because I don't think it's fair for me to comment on things that I've heard through journalists. I'd really like to hear from the horse's mouth. I'm going to read it, though," said Meghan McCain.

Meghan McCain also refused to say whether she thinks Palin would make a good president.

She says she did get to know Palin fairly well during the 2008 campaign.
