He’s not “loyally opposed” to Hillary, though.

He's loyal to Obama, and he always opposes the Republicans.

worthless drivel from a loser.

He is so sorry an individual without any spine at all as he prefers taking on fellow Republicans rather than Reid.

see these articles on his “spirited opposition” to Hillary’s confirmation.

http://thehill.com/leading-the-news/cornyn-yields-senate-debates-clinton-nomination-2009-01-21.html

Clinton also won support from GOP presidential candidate John McCain (R-Ariz.) and his ally, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), both of whom said they believe Clinton will succeed in the job and that the country needs a secretary of State as quickly as possible, given growing tensions in the Middle East, North Korea and Afghanistan.

“We shouldn’t delay,” McCain said. “We need to immediately move forward ... I would remind all my colleagues we had an election and we also had a remarkable and historic time [Tuesday] and this nation has come together as it has not for some time.”

And this one on his disgraceful rebuke of Cornyn.

He needs to be sent back to the hole he came from.

I am thrilled to learn McCain has such a high opinion of himself.

Hey John, in order to OPPOSE an issue you have to actually disagree.

Loyal opposition,,it is an old term and a good one. We are the opposition, we are loyal to our country.

John McCain may be something else. But the term is a good one.

For many years Sen McCain had a spine. I hope that he finds it and reinstalls it. I am very sorry and it hurts me beyond anything most of you can know to say I doubt that will happen.

So far he has shown a ration of “loyal” without any “opposition.”

Oh so did lord McCain tell Bama he had no power and authority to tell Republicans they could not listen to Rush??? There does seem to be some coincidence in lord McCain's campaign guy going across the pond to claim it was Rush's fault lord McCain lost.

A bit too “loyal” for my tastes.

>> Name one. [principle McCain ran his campaign on]

“WHENEVER I enounter a conservative with eyes below my shoulder level, I WILL stick my fingers in ‘em!”

I know, it’s not much of a principle, but it’s all I’ve got.

No, John McCain is the “loser”. He has a great big letter ‘L’ on his forehead. Not just for his faux Republicanism, but because he doesn’t even have the chutzpah to switch parties.
