I think there ought to be some rule set up (probably has to be written into the Constitution), that if you don’t show up for an assembly of Congress/Senate for 90 days, then the governor can appoint a temp to represent the state until your health or affairs improve. It’s quiet possible that McCain may still be a Senator on December 31st of this year, and never shown up in DC a single time.

He could at least show his face, as he is famous for showing up on the Sunday morning media mass shows... IF he has what he claimed, I cannot believe he can actually speak.

I would suspect that he’s down in the 120 pound range and not able to maneuver well. Zero chance he’ll ever do another Sunday talk show.

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