Ashley Zais, Miss South Carolina, Hired By The McCain Campaign

Jonathan Martin over at Politico says he's gotten word from a "colleague" that McCain has hired beauty queen Ashley Zais, to be in charge of his interns. Martin wants everyone to make sure that Ashley Zais should not be confused with Miss Teen South Carolina, who is now a YouTube star for completely messing up an answer during the Miss Teen USA contest last August. Click here to see more photos of Ashley Zais.

More about Ashley Zais from Politico:

Ashley Zais, a recent Wofford grad, will serve as McCain's intern coordinator at the campaign's headquarters.

She met McCain last year when the senator gave a speech at South Carolina's Newberry College, where her father is president. Mitchell Zais, a retired Army general, and McCain became friendly after Zais published a piece in 2006 critical of how Rumsfeld's Pentagon had handled the war.

McCain has certainly proven what I have always thought, he has GREAT taste in women.

[Pookie2112]

Do senior citizens like Mad Cow McSame, with very, VERY saggy balls really need a ball-polisher?

[hopein]

Who needs Vcki now!

Where is Vicki?
What happened to Vicki?
Where is Vicki?

What kind of a job is it to be in charge of the interns?
Are they the Senate interns? How many are there?
So many questions and very few answers, iif any.

Uh oh - there goes the beer princess.

Hey, she can eloquently state his economic plans. It will make just as much sense.

[NotMyPrez]

He's just jealous of Vladamir Putin. Bet she's not as flexible. WTF does a beauty contestant know about political internships? WTF is going on with this country?

[rubicon101]

what do you know about anything>? would be a better question...

[Manni]

He should hire Miss TEEN South Carolina... She has a map too.

:)

[going2ireland]

Cindy better stand even closer to John! After all, she caught John in much the same way Miss South Carolina is starting out!!

[ReasonIsMyReligion]

Intern recruitment WAY up.

[StanTheManic]

An egghead college professor who couldn't hack it in the real world of the military ... and a guy who managed to get himself shot down and held prisoner. Sounds like a wonderful start to the McCain administration's Defense policy.

Watch out Mrs. McCain....it looks like old Johnny Boy is looking to trade up. Again!

[HowietheScreamer]

Nah, the current Mrs. McStain has ol' Johnny the wanderer by the ballz... she was smart enough to keep ALL THE MONEY IN HER NAME. He goes for some young poon, he's out on the street poor, and miserable.

Of course, he does abuse his wife, so maybe he'll get away with it.

[utd]

I would hardly identify the pay Senators get or their retirement package as being out on the street poor, and miserable.

[LaurieLee]

Are you mad? I'm guessing Cindy Lou would put up with anything to be able to invite her friends to her White House tea parties. She's not going anywhere regardless of what John does.
