John McCain acknowledges he is in for a tough race to retain his Senate seat, now that his already shaky support among his Arizona constituents has been compounded by the unpredictable influence of having Donald Trump as the presumptive Republican nominee, CBS News reports.

just replace him. too beltway. He either ignored or chose to downplay the danger of Valerie’s man child in 2008. He should’ve been mothballed a long time ago.

This is one of the most important races the GOPe needs to lose...and get a fresh conservative face...

Anybody think McCain doesn't wake up every morning angry and pissed at Trump for his comments about his time as a POW...?

If McCain keeps his seat, he will make himself a PITA for Trump everyday...

Stop blaming Trump for your tough re-election. Look in the mirror instead!

A bizarre move. What was he thinking?

If McCain goes away maybe that’ll end his porcine daughter’s gig with Fox.

In football you take a knee with a minute left if your ahead.
McCain took a knee when it was tied.

Maybe Dr. Kelli Ward will relieve John McCain of his concern for a tough race. McCain should have retired long ago.
