Meghan Mccain Twitter Photo-Meghan McCain, a Daily Beast columnist and daughter of Sen. John McCain, apologized late Wednesday after posting a photo of herself on Twitter that stirred up some criticism and plenty of retweets.

Meghan Mccain Twitter PhotoThe photo shows Ms. McCain in a tanktop, holding a copy of Andy Warhol’s biography, and her accompanying tweet referred to her “’spontaneous’ night in.”

With Ms. McCain’s tens of thousands of followers, her snapshot quickly made the rounds. She then began posting follow-up messages defending it.

“So I took a fun picture not thinking anything about what I was wearing but apparently anything other than a pantsuit I am a slut,” she wrote, followed by “what once was fun now just seems like a vessel for harassment” and “when I am alone in my apartment, I wear tank tops and sweat pants, I had no idea this makes me a “slut”, I can’t even tell you how hurt I am.”

Later, she added, “I do want to apologize to anyone that was offended by my twitpic, I have clearly made a huge mistake and am sorry 2 those that are offended.”

Ms. McCain’s photo did trigger some criticism. “If @mccainblogette is the future of the GOP, we’re gonna have to get much more serious about real issues like glitter, fabric, and unicorns,” tweeted Danny Coles, a self-described “enlightened, charming, and disarming twenty-something conservative” in Washington, D.C. “Come on, you were taking a picture with your cleav as the centerpiece — on purpose. I don’t care, but let’s be honest.”

But those comments were outnumbered by the positive response. “Don’t listen to those peeps, some r just hateful,” wrote Amanda Shannon. “This is rediculous America! Just because someone posts a picture doesn’t make them a slut. Get your heads out of the gutter,” added John Adams. “For the record, @McCainBlogette’s twitpic is probably my favorite Twitpic ever,” wrote Derek Huff.

It turns out Ms. McCain’s appeal may cross the political divide. “I may be a super hardcore Dem, but I really find @McCainBlogette to be pretty awesome,” tweeted Melanie Aranda.
