Cindy McCain told CBS News that “one or two” of her children might have political aspirations like their father, the late Sen. John McCain (R-AZ).
Said McCain: “There are two I know that won’t, but there’s two that I think will.”
She declined to name which of their four children (John McCain had three other children from a previous marriage), but added: “They’ve all grown up in politics. It’s hard not to – you either catch the bug or you don’t.”
