Oh there used to be a number of John McCain's in the House. But retirements and two democratic wave elections took out about sixty of them. Then they were replaced by conservatives after 2010.

The old guard moderates used to have a majority of the majority (hence the Hastert Rule to keep conservative proposals from getting a vote) but now conservatives have a majority of the majority and Chuckie doesn't like it.

But Chuckie has the leadership, insidious and conniving Boehner, Cantor, McCarthey and McMorris-Rogers that he can count on! They are "his republicans."

So John’s love for Chuckie is mutual, how sweet.
