John McCain's daughter: Sucking up to Hollywood doesn't make Meghan McCain a star (or interesting)

The blogosphere is buzzing with the big question: Is Meghan McCain sucking up to Hollywood? And does she want to be the biggest celebrity on earth?
If it weren't an election year and if her daddy John McCain hadn't made a nasty TV commercial impugning his opponent's integrity by comparing him to Paris Hilton and Britney Spears ... no one would care. In fact they might say getting her hair done at John Frieda on Melrose Place — like Kate Hudson, Renee Zellweger, Meg Ryan, Jane Fonda and Lisa Rinna do — had really paid off. (Even if she did make everyone sign a confidentiality agreement like the real stars do.)
Hey, there is absolutely not a thing wrong with doing what it takes to look good, baby.
No, none of those issues would bother us if it weren't for her blog. Which she calls a blogette. (That's so Paris.) And which features anti-insight entries such as this one from Friday, August 8:
For anyone who hasn't been to Ohio in the summer, it is gorgeous and everyone should drive through it if you get the chance. We started the morning at a Bob Evans Restaurant and then headed to a very lively town hall at the Veteran's Memorial Civic and Convention Center in Lima. Tomorrow, we head to the annual Iowa State Fair in Des Moines — where we will hopefully see the largest pig in the United States, among other interesting attractions. Then it's back on the plane, and we'll end our day in Las Vegas!
Again, nothing wrong with writing a blog that reads like Paris Hilton (if Paris used spellcheck). But here's the thing. We read Paris's blog because, well, she IS a celebrity.
And we know that this whole Facebook approach to the wrinkly, white-haired candidate is supposed to make young voters think John McCain really isn't THAT old. But he is, folks. He's 71, no matter how many times Meghan writes, "I have yet to see Dad take a nap on the trail.”
She's his daughter and that's what she's supposed to do. But next time we want to read a blog or look at photos of stars, we'll go with real celebrities. Ones whose fathers aren't running for president.
We're just saying.
