McCain's Granddaughter at UNC

Doug McCain (sometimes called Doug Shepp) is a pilot with American Airlines who lives in Virginia Beach. He and his wife Ashley have two kids, a daughter at the University of North Carolina and a son at Norfolk Academy. That means "Aunt Bridget" (John McCain's 16-year-old daughter) is younger than one of her nieces, and might be about the same age as her nephew.

Doug and his family live near his Mom, Carol Shepp, who was McCain's first wife. According to this interview in Pilot Online, Ms. Shepp "not only sports a McCain bumper sticker on her car but also contributed to her ex-husband's campaign." How encouraging is that for the blended families of America?
