Sundance is missing the point.
Yesterday there was one option on the table - the “Skinny Repeal” which was Obamacare light. Had it passed who knows what would have come out of conference if anything, and when if ever would the House have approved it?
Looking to this wussy Republican Congress do fix anything is a misake.
Now Trump is free to point out the failure of Congress to act, and move forward with everything he can do via Executive Orders. Anyone who doesn’t like that can make their choice in next year’s midterm elections - vote to continue with their failed congressman or get behind Trump.
McCain will probably not be a factor by then.
There are more options today than there were yesterday. Just stop looking for Congress to be the solution to problems created by Congress.

Because 160 crewmates just isn’t enough.
To be honest, if that “skinny repeal” was all they were going to get, it’s probably just as well that McCain defeated the bill. Nothing that came out of the Conference Committee after that was going to pass anyway.
For now, President Trump should subject every Congressman to Obamacare, without subsidies, if it’s true that he can do that with the stroke of a pen.
Then just take on the health insurance morass one small bill at a time. See how many Democrats want to go on record against dropping the individual mandate, for instance.
Or start with the 10% tax on tanning salons. Run a bill up the flagpole to repeal it and let the young people who want a tan for the upcoming wedding know that Obamacare needs an extra 10% out of their hides.
Furthermore, after six or eight examples like that, and with Obamacare premiums still rising and insurance companies continuing to desert the market, the 2018 election could still see gains for the GOP by running even harder against Obamacare. And maybe someone will primary Murkowski and a few others to boot.
Now we know why AZ keeps him intact: they want to preserve Obamacare, but their senior citizens are on Medicare! People in AZ must adore the publicity this old geezer brings them. Otherwise, they would hardly be mentioned in the national news.
McCain needs to have Obamacare for his insurance.
I’ve done dumps with more integrity and honour than Senator Mcshame.
If Satan was a Senator he would look and act like Mschame
This all about the McCain ego.
The (hoped for) McCain Legacy:
1. I’m a great man who should have been President.
2. I showed the American people that Donald Trump is a poor excuse for President and should never hsve been elected.
3. I’m a great man who should have been President.
This is one Sorry S.O.B.
This guy hates his country.
I won’t fly my front yard Flag at half mast when he’s gone, NO WAY!
He is a disgrace to the Great State of Arizona, and his
record shows only one thing, John McCain is all about John McCain. Period. Can’t wait for Kelly Ward. She could run circles around this JOKER!
Rules Freepers!
John ‘Keating 5’ McCain (should go into reference, including the headlines)
I have a feeling that we won’t be seeing much more of Meghan on Fox. She has been pretty good for a while but when it comes to Daddy I doubt if she can be objective. Her presence can only compromise Fox.
Swell. Then make him participate in it too!
Why doesn’t he just switch parties? He delivered his parting shot before he croaked...just like that Arlen Spector. Damn them.
Spiteful PRC!
