Cindy McCain Wins One, Loses One

Cindy looked great at this week's BCS Championship in Glendale, Arizona - where she succeeded in keeping her eyes away from the players butts...but failed to get Senator John to not embarrass her by going to a football game in a suit.

More Money for the McCains

Cindy sells the manch for $3.2 mil.
AZCentral.com sez:
"U.S. Sen. John McCain, the Arizona Republican, and his wife, Cindy, are leaving the big place in north central Phoenix behind to move to a condo near 24th Street and Camelback Road. Cindy McCain owned the house through a trust.
Looks like sooommmeee-ooonneee is planning on moving into the East Wing.

Cindy McCain pulls a Lady Di on Land Mines

Excelen-tay.
Cin-Cin is doin' a Diana and going to Cambodia to call attention to land mines.
The move bolsters her and therefore John's international standing, reminds the electorate that - unlike so many other candidates that shall remain nameless - her husband actually did serve in the Viet Nam war... and puts her in a different league than those other first-lady wanabees who can only seem to attach themselves to projects like helping American kids (yawn) read.
Way to lay the groundwork for the inevitable princess comparisons.
Both blond and pretty. Diana was addicted to making herself vomit. Cindy was addicted to getting high. Both mitigated damage from scandal with sympathy inducing vulnerability and killer clothes. Genius.

Tip: Orchestrate a fabulous Di-like photo-op with you walking around in a giant face mask to protect you from shrapnel in a field that has already been swept. Also, milk your thinness by appearing in a pair of snug khaki "I'm out actually doin' stuff pants" a la Diana. And yes, I've got to say it, a Diana haircut would work oh so nicely too.

Cindy v. Judi. Tale of the Tape

Okay ladies. CBS sez your husbands are matching up pound for pound in a fight to the death for the Republican nomination. The resume comparison actually includes their movie cameos - and by that measure I guess McCain is ahead because "Wedding Crashers" sucked less than "Anger Management".
What the media should be doing is weighing the women.
Here's Cindy v. Judi.

CINDY MCCAIN
Wife of U.S. Senator John McCain (R) Arizona

Comes off as quite likable in a grew up rich former vicodin stealer kind of way. Ultimately admitted a past pill addiction but would probably have been better if that hadn't surfaced until after a stint in the White House a la Betty Ford and Pat Nixon. But hey better to fess up if you're about to get outed. And America loves a good I'm so sorry I was getting blunted story. It was the pressure. Gets extra points for having the magic number of kids- 4.( plus the 2 girls 2 boys bonus).

PRO: Gives good political spouse hair, makeup, and clothes.
CON: Why was she stealing drugs when her family is rich?
TIP: A little Mary Tyler Moore going on with your hair flippage. Spank down.

JUDITH NATHAN GIULIANI

Side Chick turned 3rd wife of Former Mayor Rudy Giuliani (R) New York

Sponge-bathed her way to the alter by nursing Rudy through a prostate cancer scare. (Take note Diana Taylor). If Rudy runs she'll have to spank down the Manhattan socialite hair and make up. Waaaaaaaaaay down.

Pro: Stood by her man.
Con: Some will always consider her a home wrecker.
Tip: Looking a little plastic these days. If Rudy does run plan next "freshening" well in advance so it has time to sag a bit.

Likeable First Lady = up to a 7 point boost. Or at the very least, keeps approval ratings from sinking into the single digits. Just ask Laura.

John McCain Wants to Continue Conversation With America

Translation: exploratory committee time. That means you've got to be extra vigilant Cindy. Years in presidential politics are like dog years. When John ran in 2000 he still had energy and sense. Now, 42 years later, he's lost his crackle and pop. Still he's got a damn good shot at the G-O-P nomination if he doesn't say or do something batty, and it's your job as daughter-wife to make sure he doesn't. I know, I know...the hell that is national politics has taken its toll on your health too. But hey, you used to be a cheerleader - suck it up, smile, pop a lotrel and start back-flipping your way toward the East Wing.
Oh, and your game face has always been good - but tip: go back to shorter-do. Much, much better.
