Cindy McCain addressed the Convention and told us about her family and her husband. Candidate spousal speeches are a uniquely American tradition. The reason behind this is because Americans view the family and the marital compact as the fundamental building blocks of our society. Thus, we want to hear about Michelle Obama's and Cindy McCain's views about the candidates, even though we are never really surprised when we hear intensely glowing commentary.
Cindy McCain is an human relief activist and would be even if her husband was not in politics. Her story about rescuing a young orphan girl from Bangladesh who suffered from a severe life-threatening cleft palate and who had recently lost her entire family in a cyclone was gripping. Mrs. McCain joked that it is pretty hard to ever turn down a face-to-face request delivered by Mother Teresa. This young girl was adopted by Senator and Mrs. McCain and is now their beautiful daughter Bridget.
As you could see from the television broadcast and RNC's video feed, Bridget McCain is presenting a world-class smile tonight.
