I was happier with Lurleen Wallace assuming George’s governorship.

The site that "reported" that John McCain was going to resign today was the Santa Monica Observer, which is a fake news site. The previous article written by the author (Stan Greene) of the 'McCain will resign on July 4th and be replaced by Cindy McCain' piece was about the killing of a chupacabra.

Weird so many here fell for this.

If his brain is mush, then somebody else is playing senator.

I’m not even going to pretend I knew after looking it up.

Tell us more. Is this a thing?

Have other dying elected members been replaced by immediate family before?

That seems like a bad thing to continue.

Lose the guy/gal you voted for....and in place, you get the grieving spouse.

Nope. I don’t consent.

The news is that McCain is faking illness to avoid the past due justice for his part in dossier treason.

According to those who filed the report, the info about McCain retiring today, came from an “aide”.

I thought at the time, “video, or it didn’t happen.”

IIRC, he did not say a specific year. Perhaps his 'cancer' moves around his brain, like his leg cast boot changes legs. Think of Monty Python and the Holy Grail vis: "I'm not dead." "I'm getting better." "I don't want to go on the cart." "I think I'll go for a walk." "I feel happy. I feel happy."

Let us just build them a home and put them all there.

I would suggest the Fletcher Memorial Home... but I think that name has already been suggested.

We have 3 months before the vote is needed. A lot can happen in 3 months.

There is no evidence that he has said anything in the last eight months.

Like Bader-Ginsburg, McCain will only go when the devil takes him. At this point the Senate should kick him out but they support him. The Senate GOP needs to be purged.

Clearly nepotism.

I searched several times yesterday for a story about Juan’s retirement. Found nothing. Another jab in the eye from Juan?

“One would think, Mitch the Senate, would at least require a welfare check on somebody collecting a paycheck. Lord McCain is the ultimate welfare case.”

Nice job....indefinite sick leave with full pay.

“You gotta be careful, he may still be voting Democrat for years to come.”

He’s probably figured out how he can prevent Obamacare repeal after he’s gone.

Undoubtedly the mega-liberal shrew wife couldn’t get assurances that she would be granted the Senate seat do she kept Songbird plugged in a bit longer and thus gets to make announcements in the name of Songbird until he fully rots.

Is it fake news that he’s dying? That was my (admitted conspiracy theory) speculation when he first announced it last year.

McCain and Ruth Buzzy Ginsburg will out live us all.

Our children’s children will be waiting for them to retire.
