Potential First Daughter Meghan McCain talked about her new children’s book, My Dad, John McCain, and her dad’s run for the highest office in the land in an interview with CNN’s Larry King on Monday.

On Why She Wrote A Book About Her Father: I just thought it would be a really great way to make my father’s story accessible to children. It is a really fascinating, patriotic American hero story and I had actually met a lot of people on the trail that weren’t familiar with his story….

On Sarah Palin: I think to a degree everyone was surprised because [Sarah Palin] was an unknown. But I’m very, very pleased with it. I love her. I’m really excited about it….First of all, she’s really chill. She’s really nice, really friendly. She’s really up on pop culture, which I always respect. She’s very smart. She doesn’t act entitled, which unfortunately sometimes you get with some politicians. She’s just like your average girl, like just a mom. But she’s very, very shrewd, very smart. I’ve heard her talking about issues.
