Megan McCain, yes, John McCain's daughter, uploaded a decidedly racy photo of herself to her Twitter account around 8 p.m. yesterday displaying both an Andy Warhol biography and, more prominently, her tweets, I mean, well you get the point. The Daily Beast columnist, @McCainBlogette, was merely musing about how she felt she was getting old after spending a "spontaneous" night in involving an Andy Warhol biography, takeout, and apparently low-cut tank tops. Judging from the photo, she's far from aged.

- my "spontaneous" night in...

Following the controversial tweet McCain got quite a bit of feedback, prompting her to lash out via Twitter, even threatening to delete her account.

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, this is

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

ok I am getting the fuck off twitter, promise not to delete my account until I sleep on it, thank you for the nice words supporters

After her little Twitter tirade, McCain took to the Twitterverse, once again, to apologize for the indecorous image.

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.

What do you think? Was McCain's twitpic really that offensive or are people just bored and turning a harmless photo into something of controversy?
