McCain issued the following statement today...
"With Senator Lindsey Graham's announcement, Republicans lost our most qualified, thoughtful, fearless and honest presidential candidate, not to mention the candidate with the best (and it seemed sometimes the only) sense of humor. Despite the disadvantages he faced in resources and debate opportunities, Lindsey's message of serious statesmanship and problem-solving in public affairs, his forthright opposition to policies and attitudes that would endanger our country and reflect poorly on our party, and his genuine decency and humility won him many new admirers.
"As sorry as I am to see Lindsey's candidacy end, I understand his reasons, and I'm as proud of him as I've ever been for his exemplary service to our party and our country. Lindsey's friends and supporters take consolation in the assurance his voice will continue to be prominent in the U.S. Senate, where his message of inclusiveness, optimism, and forward-looking leadership will serve as a needed rebuttal to those who advocate a narrower and pessimistic vision for our party.
"It is a pity that a bifurcated debate structure kept his voice and views from the wider public that needed to hear them. Even so, as the candidate with the most national security experience, and, in my opinion, the most practical and honorable views of American world leadership, Lindsey stood up to and helped stem the rise within our party of isolationism and obliviousness in world affairs, and indifference to human suffering."

Cantorize Juan this time!
when will McCain finally take the hint and retire?
Stupidity can not be fixed.
With all due respect, Senator, when you lose an election you don’t seem to be in a position to direct others how to win.
Sweet Jesus.
The fact that McCain is not primaried, long ago, informs me that he is one of the more skilled politicians around.
LOL
Fixed it.
A woman state senator physician has announced she will run in the Republican primary against nutso. I know nothing about her other than the fact that I will be voting for her because she in not McCain and that is good enough for me.
Go spoon your girl muppet, Johnnie. Comfort her as only you know how.
This completes my allotment of morning laughs today. Nice that the laughter will continue on non-stop till tomorrow morning and after.
Is this guy going to pass on while holding his seat?
Why did you post the picture of McCain’s daughter from Fox News?
He may last longer than a sovereign AZ: his mother, I believe, is over 100.
I’ve suspected since ‘10 that McCain is working with Reid to help him keep his Senate seat.
We may have to “Ryan” him to get rid of him.
It’s nice to see true and undying love.
