NEW YORK, March 10 (UPI) -- Meghan McCain, daughter of 2008 Republican presidential nominee John McCain, said she was just offering her opinion when she criticized commentator Ann Coulter.
McCain, 24, who writes a blog for the Web site The Daily Beast, said the conservative Coulter is "offensive," "insulting" and "confusing."
"It's not meant to be mean or nasty, it's just my perspective," she told "Inside Edition" of her remarks.
Coulter, who was critical of her dad during the presidential election, has a negative influence on the Republican Party, McCain said.
"I love the Republican Party. I want it to be great," she said. "I just think not supporting your candidate does not help. …I get a lot of e-mails from people saying, 'Thank you for speaking out, I feel the same way.'"
