He would lose his "maverick" status for sure. but would it make him less dangerous or more dangerous?

The demoncraps would martyr him. I think something more severe is in order.

The liberal dream of having a RINO president would die.

They should staple a flag to McCain's butt and send him to Iran.

I would rather the state of Arizona pull their collective heads out of their butts and either elect a real conservative or a democrat.

I'd much rather see him no longer in government.

Would you rather that McCain be a Democrat than a Republican? I think we should accept that he's one of our black sheep. He's with us on some stuff and against us on other stuff.

I just wish he would get booted out of the Congress.

Me too. I'd love to see the voters boot him.

Lets see. If the republicans kicked mccain out of the party or demonize him like the democrats did to The Honerable Senator Miller, it would satisfy the conservative core but would alienate the "moderates" that Senator McCain appeals to.

In short, though you might like to disagree with them, the Senators who are part of 'the deal' are also part of keeping the Republican base wide and diverse which is the reason the Republican base is growing rapidly and the democrats who are busy kicking out everyone who isn't a radical tree hugging YEAAARGHer have been shrinking in power and support.

So grin and bear it. This is actually healthy for the party and advances our goals in ways that aren't very obvious but are very real.

It's all up to Bush and Frist now. Bush squandered his "political capital" on a half-assed social security effort, alien amnesty and campaign-payoff bankruptcy bill. Had he focused on the Judges from day one, it would have been DONE. Bush dropped the ball. What will he and Frist do now? If he permits this compromise, Presidential power will have been set back 3 decades.

Unfortunately, that is not very likely to happen, as he was just reelected with 76% of the vote.

Just thank God he wasn't the Republican candidate for Pres in 2000.

What a shame... he could have been a Conservative, but fell to the power of the Dark Side.

McCain must go. The only way to push him out is to make sure he does not feel welcome. This guy needs to be freeped and freeped bigtime. Club for Growth etc. are you out there. Please use the benefits conferred upon you by McCain Feingold (that act of acts) and make this guy's life a living hell.

We need to send a message to McCain...."You're out....no more funds...no more support...whoever runs against you in the primary, we're backing him. Go join Jim Jeffords".

I'd rather temporarily lost power by kicking these people out than to send the message that the GOP has no b@lls. And that's exactly what happened yesterday. And the Dems know it.

Conservative principles win. I wish the GOP Senate would remember that.

IMHO, Sen McCain is the most corrupt senator in American history. He should have been in jail along with Keating and the Keating 5 - not in the congress of the united states.

I wish the people of AZ would vote him out of office but we have less then 1% turnover in any election due to the incumbent protections they have put in place and the lack of attention paid by the voters.

I wouldn't go that far. I would trade him any day for either of our socialist senators. (Durbin and Obama) There are a lot of good conservatives in Arizona and Illinois and New York too for that matter and look at the two losers New Yorkers are stuck with. As bad as McCain is, as another poster observed, he's still better than the ones who admit to being dems.
