#1 McCain is what an 80s something old man is like when he knows he is at the end of his lifetime and is bitter about not accomplishing certain things and is jealous and very angry towards those who did.

If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain and bitter;
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. "Desiderata"

#3 Not one senate democrat pulled a 'courageous' bipartisan vote when Obamacare was jammed down americas throat yet it is the republicans always painted as partisan.

McCain, Roberts, Makowski are just a few Republicans truly able to stop Obamacare yet chose not to.

#4 In my life, Strom Thurmond, Bob Byrd, and Ted Kennedy won re-election long past their best-used dates.

Another one was Harry Reid. The only thing Harry Reid did that was decent was to step down and leave the nuclear option as a part of his legacy. However, the Pubs don't seem to quite know what to do with this gift.

#6 Yes, but even more he embodies what is wrong with the Republican party.

This guy was our 2008 nominee for president. How the f*^k does that happen?

This guy keeps getting reelected as a Republican Senator from a red state. How the f*^k does that happen?

2008 was the first time in my life that I did not vote for the Republican presidential nominee. Today I am more proud of that decision than ever. We need to raise the bar. Just being "not as bad as the other guy" doesn't make you a Republican. At least, it shouldn't.

McCain has a formidable political machine and he is a determined and ruthless campaigner.

McCain is also working (and has a lot of pull) with the AZ GOP(e). Since Governor Ducey and rest of the Party wanted the Medicaid bucks to keep flowing, McCain accommodated them.

2008 was the first time in my life that I did not vote for the Republican presidential nominee. Today I am more proud of that decision than ever.

And we had Barry for eight years.
