With all this talk of Sarah Palin's children and whether her daughter Bristol was the mother of her youngest child Trig, it got me thinking about one political daughter who has been completely out of the media's eye.
Where is Bridget McCain? Bridget is the 16 year old adopted Bengali daughter of the McCain's. According this this article, Bridget is staying home in in Arizona. Interesting that they seem to be keeping Bridget out of the public's eye. Remember in 2000, when Karl Rove's tactic was to spread rumors that Bridget was McCain's illigitimate daughter by a Black prostitute? Why keep Bridget in hiding? Hardly even a mention is made of her existence these days.
Will we see her at all during the convention? They always have those picture perfect family gatherings at the end of the conventions. The Obama's and Biden's had a beautifully multi-raced group of extended family gather at the end of Senator Obama's speech at Invesco. Will Bridget make an appearance this week?
UPDATE: Check out The Discovery of Bridget for an incisive perspective on the appearance of Bridget McCain at the RNC.
