Whatever you may feel about alcohol, it is legal, and her involvement in that industry should not be held against her.
However, here is where she will face some tough questioning....or perhaps not, if McCain holds a few more barbecues for the press.
Hensley & Co., founded by Cindy McCain's
late father, holds federal and state
licenses to distribute beer and
lobbies regulatory agencies on
controversial alcohol issues that
involve public health and safety.
The
company has argued against such
groups as Mothers Against Drunk
Driving in fighting proposed federal
rules that would require alcohol
content information on every package
of beer, wine and liquor.
So....Cindy finds herself in direct opposition to MADD. Not the best place to stake out a position.
