Facebook Woops: Giuliani's Girl Goes For Barack

If you're running for the highest office in the land, it's probably a good idea to check to see what your daughter's doing, if she's going to vote for you, and if not, will she be quiet about it? Wouldn't you double check her social network profiles?

What is it with Republican candidate daughters? Bush, Cheney, and now Giuliani. And how come, with such a not-conservative father, Chelsea Clinton seemed stay out of trouble and into the books? Rebellion at its heights?

Slate is reporting that former New York City mayor and Republican Presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani's daughter, Caroline, just quit the Barack Obama (One Million Strong for Barack) group on Facebook, but only after Slate contacted her to ask what was up.

And, surprise, she's not talking to them about it.

A soon-to-be Harvard student, Caroline failed to mark her profile private, and the sleuths at Slate found her out. That's too bad for her, and a bit embarrassing for Rudy. She tried to hide it at the last minute, but Slate caught a screen cap denoting her withdrawal from the Barack fan club.

This isn't the first time a child's social network profile has made a politician's face red. Wonkette has a running tally of all the social networking mishaps, including the latest on one of the Bush twins and Jeb Bush, Jr. doing some interesting things with a champagne bottle.
