Cindy McCain may be a good person,mother and there is no reason to believe she is not proud of this country.

But inherited a family fortune by distributing alcohol.

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.
