I’d like to see his before politics income/assets, and after politics income/assets.

Oh come on, you really think any of them would ever release that information?

McCain was the keystone.
Once it started to be clear he is NOT going to be around much longer, the GOP-e in the Senate started to fracture.
After Strange looses in AL, it is only going to get worse for them.

...So that will be Corker, Flake ( IMHO Ward will spank him )...

We are too far out to say Flake will lose. The way things are going the GOPe with the Chamber of Commerce will spend tens of millions of dollars and fund a third candidate designed to siphon off votes from Ward and the DNC will help. It happened here in Virginia during our last gubernatorial election when, the day after the election, the news came out that the Dems funded the third party candidate who took enough votes to allow the carpetbagger Mcauliffe to win.

He was a worthless piece of shit who corrupted both the letter and intent of the US Constitution in order to get Obama’s Iran amnesty passed.

Good riddance.

Blackburn, Green, and Carr are the main three conservative possibilities to replace him. Blackburn and Green probably won’t run. Carr will but is the weakest of the three. If Haslam (a moderate) runs, he would probably stand a good chance of winning unless Blackburn opts in; but she will likely wait until 2020 and run for Alexander’s seat.

We need to get a solid conservative Pubbie to replace Corker.

We have had it up to our eyeballs with the RINO mentality of folks like Corker.

I can not name one good thing he has done for this great country of ours.

As a Tennessean all I can say is, “Thank God”. He has been such a disappointment.

Senator Corker was named among other things as a big enabler of the Iran nuclear deal of Obama.

The Corker Bill changed the threshold from one-third NO to stop the deal to two-third’s NO in the Senate.

Rush Limbaugh discussed this on his radio program as being about lifting sanctions so companies like Boeing and Airbus could sell airplanes to Iran.

Those deals are still in the pipeline even though there’s tough talk and sanctions talk against Iran.

I also believe the most important public service I have to offer our country could well occur over the next 15 months, and I want to be able to do that as thoughtfully and independently as I did the first 10 years

Looks like he's gonna go all McCain kamekazi on us.

Now if we can just nominate a real conservative. And get Alexander to retire or be replaced. He’s the worst RINO in the Senate.

Yeah that would work...biggest thing is to get them out of the DC area and back home where the experience that benefit of their past governing genius!

I remember reading where two huge lefties McGovern & Bonoir were horrified about all the federal red tape that came with starting and running a small business. Both are quoted as saying if they had known things would have been this bad they might have viewed things differently.
