"Tasty Coco Bon-Bon"" John McCain's Brazilian Lover-Lady Identified: Say Hi To Maria Gracinda Teixeira De Jesus

We had reported a while ago on the fact that John McCain had engaged in a steamy affair with a Brazilian woman he kept in contact with for several months after, a fact he recounts in his memoir, Faith of my Fathers. Rio '57! Woo! Well that Brazilian ____ (beauty / belle / bombshell / bedpan / choose your own) has now ben identified! She's Maria Gracinda Teixeira De Jesus, age 77. She's been married for times but has lived alone for the past ten years, having lost a great deal of money gambling. Romantic! A former beauty queen (like a certain someone!) and dancer, she talks about the 8-day-stand with McCain quite candidly. Turns out he's as delicious a lover as we always imagined he'd be:

"He was a lovely person and loved to go out with me. I called him 'John' but he was my dear and my coconut dessert.

"He was such a good kisser that I had to purchase a book which taught me how to kiss to keep up with him."

Asked about John in bed, Gracinda says, "Of course we had sex...he was not only good at kissing but good at everything."

We knew it. As for that comment about him being her "coconut dessert," apparently the sentiment was mutual:

Gracinda described the young McCain as 'cuddly, affectionate and romantic' and noted he called her 'my coco bonbon.'

Gross. You know these two were open-mouth kissing in the middle of shopping malls or sharing an ice cream cone all sloppily in front of everyone. You know the type:

If McCain wins November 4 elections against Democrat Barack Obama, Gracinda said she will send him a congratulatory telegram, signed from his 'your great love from Brazil.'

I'm sure Cindy McCain would not mind her husband getting a telegram from a former lover she happens to nearly identically resemble. Ugh.
