Republican Senator, John McCain is now on long term sick leave (is dying) and cannot represent the citizens & voters of the state of Alabama, because under Senate rules he has to be present in the Senate to cast a valid vote.
One would think that McCain would have the decency, dedication, loyalty and conscience to gracefully resign and let an able person represent the voters & citizens of Arizona. But...McCain has no such will or focus within him...."SAD"!!!
The Majority Leaders of the Senate, Mitch McConnell and/or, the Governor of Arizona should force McCain to resign, immediately and then the Governor should appoint someone to fill out McCain term. Case closed.
Im in Huntsville on a job at the moment. I went to Nashville on Saturday! I like Nashville!
One less democrap vote!
I would suggest that for the past three years, McCain has not been of sound mind, and mostly supervised.
One would think that McCain would have the decency
No, one would not. I expect this treasonous POS to flip parties before he checks out because l believe AZ has a law that the Governor has to pick a someone from the same party as the one being replaced. Yes, McTraitor is that vindictive.
Sorry, folks for the mistake, McCain is the senior Senator from the great state of Arizona.
His whole career has been a screw you to the American people, so why would he resign?
What a terrible legacy he leaves. He actively undermined our president-to-be with false intel from the opposing partys leadership.
He is a tool and a very bad example of a man.
John, get right with God while you have the time. You screwed over so many good people over so many years and profited from it.
You are a sick freak.
They won’t force him out. He’s home dying and it will likely be soon. Then the Gov will appoint someone to fill out his term.
Can't represent the people of Arizona, either.
The Majority Leaders of the Senate, Mitch McConnell and/or, the Governor of Arizona should force McCain to resign, immediately...
Force him how?
I'm pretty sure that's not the reason he cannot represent the citizens of Alabama...
I have a hypothesis on why.
He who shall not be named wants to remain a sitting Senator at his demise so his body can lie in state in the Rotunda.
That honor (which he doesn’t deserve) is not a gimme.
Would be much less a gimme if he was no longer a Senator.
McCain is shot through. But his ego won’t let him resign.
“”Alabama??? My cousin Vinnie practices law there.””
That is funny........
Is he still wearing his tracker ankle bracelet? That should settle where he is located.
Recall that Byrd and Thurmond stayed on until their last breaths, too.
One of them was even carried in on a stretcher for one essential vote, IIRC.
Ted Kennedy, too. I do not recall him resigning.
“”How about HRC, where is she at this moment?????””
Oh! Good gosh - wherever it is I hope she’s unable to escape and we’ll never have to see/hear from her again!
Hey - it wouldn’t be unlike her to move to Arizona and run for that Senate seat!
I was just thinking last night as I was watching the Joe diGenova interview (which was excellent) that there are quite a few people who have mysteriously gone totally silent. You have named a few. I'm wondering if McCain is really silent because he is sick or is he silent for the same reason that all these other folks seem to have gone silent.
McCain ripped up his living will and would rather live out the next 4 years as a vegetable hooked up to a ventilator to deprive the republicans of a senate vote for the next 4 years. He is one mean bitter old man.

“”Sorry, folks for the mistake, McCain is the senior Senator from the great state of Arizona.””
What on earth are you apologizing for? You already wrote the state of Arizona...There wasn’t any mistake. I don’t want to believe that there are any FReepers who don’t know who McCain is and what state he represents. I took the “what state” post to be a joke!
