This could get interesting. If McCain votes NO, a lot of the House GOP caucus will similarly take a pass. This puts more pressure on Pelosi to do the heavy lifting.

Obama must be forced to spend and squander every remaining ounce of political capital he has on this stupid resolution.

Leave him politically naked and impotent.

See post #2:

“Several lawmakers and aides who have been canvassing support say that nearly 80 percent of the House Republican Conference is, to some degree, opposed to launching strikes in Syria. Informal counts by Obama allies show that support in Congress for Obama’s plans is in the low dozens.”
