Sen. John McCain's (R-AZ) office on Monday walked back his suggestion that Senate Republicans could continue to stonewall the confirmation of a ninth Supreme Court justice if Hillary Clinton is elected, insisting he will cast a vote on any nominee the next president puts forward.
"Senator McCain believes you can only judge people by their record and Hillary Clinton has a clear record of supporting liberal judicial nominees,” McCain spokesman Rachael Dean told TPM in a statement. “That being said, Senator McCain will, of course, thoroughly examine the record of any Supreme Court nominee put before the Senate and vote for or against that individual based on their qualifications as he has done throughout his career."

Of course we knew he would.
But, he’s done this so he can pile on with the Trump common sense line that he’ll challenge a fraudulent vote.
Who wouldn’t?
I have no doubt at all that this stinking party of manginas will appoint Obama’s nominee as soon as trump is elected.
In fact, they will do whatever they want between November and January, because they are all craven worms.
This is why Mrs. Submareener and I are not going to vote for John McCain, or Martha McSally. Donald Trump can spend the first two years dismantling the Code of Federal Regulations, and the “Consent Decrees” that are our real form of government right now. Heck, a Democrat Congress might even shut down the government!
“Casting a vote” does not mean “Yea” or “Nay”...............
GOP establishment expects Hillary to win.
They want a liberal Supreme Court as much as she does.
Since that’s the case - why exactly do AZ voters need to re-elect McCain?
A Democrat will vote just the same and what difference would it make.
Is it Treason if they were never on your side in first place?
amazing how evil just keeps taking over a person’s every word and action once they start down that path...LORD help ‘em.
-—”Senator McCain believes you can only judge people by their record...-—
I’m glad you said that, John, because it’s LONG past time the Arizona electorate was made wise to your record - military and as Senator.
Unfiltered by your buddies in the msm, of course.
Mr. “Gang of 14.”
he’s amazingly tone deaf.
I’d predict that the Senate approves Merrick Garland in the lame duck period, just because he’s probably more moderate than whoever Hillary will come up with.
Like a good cuck, John McCain is there.
I will vote Trump, but not for McCain. I am VN Navy vet and honor his service, but he will rubber stamp Hillary and fight Trump. Who needs him now.
McCain and Clinton are partners in the “Arab Spring” program which repeatedly provided arms to MB/AQ/IS, with the full knowledge and consent of both McCain and Clinton.
McCain, Clinton, Obama, and others have provided aid to an enemy.
Arizona,. Ball in your court
They must have something on him BIGTIME!
It’s hard for McCain to sink any lower, he’s so far below ground level.
D*****-Bag.
PLEASE GOD, LET A DEMOCRAT REPLACE THIS BACK STABBING BENEDICT ARNOLD!!!!
No longer fit for office.
Please this is an announcement to the great people of ARIZONA: Can you guys vote this IDIOT out of office.
