Meghan McCain: Keepin' it Real

A great profile in the Post:

Some time back, McCain posted to her Web site a detailed explanation of her campaign trail makeup regimen, including her approach to maximizing lash "density" by blending two brands of mascara, and her technique for priming lips with concealer before applying Benefit brand lip gloss.

"I just decided to do it 'cause a lot of girls were asking," she says. "And then I was dutifully punished on the Internet for writing about makeup." She starts to giggle. "But I got a lot of good response and Benefit actually sent me an e-mail being like, 'We love that you love Benefit!' Yeah. So, I was like, 'Yay.' "

Meghan's probably a liability (the profile isn't going to help her father much with Asian voters, but then he already had his own problems in that department) but she's not self-righteous. That's enough for me.
