Senators should rename the Russell Senate Office Building the McCain Senate Office Building. By doing so, they would send a powerful message to voters, telling them, in effect, “We hear you.”
By renaming the building after the late Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), Democrats would be making a gesture of bipartisan good faith. Republicans who support renaming would be bolstering the idea of making the Senate an occasional oasis of bipartisanship and answering midterm voters’ pleas.
If McCain were here, I believe he would be a rousing bipartisan supporter of democracy in Ukraine and might well be trying to get back into the Navy to join the fight. He would be pushing for bipartisanship every hour of every day on issues to help our people.
Several months ago, paraphrasing what then-Sen. John Kennedy (D-Mass.) said about the Cold War during the 1950s, I wrote that great powers (and great parties) are like magnets. They can attract. They can also repel. During the midterms, the Republicans became one of the most repellant parties in political history, which created one of the epic political disasters in modern history.
Can anyone think of anything more politically stupid and self-destructive than the Republican candidate for governor of Arizona, Kari Lake, offering repeated ugly and sarcastic attacks against McCain, who represented Arizona in Congress for 35 years?

“Powerful?”
How about The John McCain/Benedict Arnold Building?
Translation: now that the gop has gained majority status in the house (despite all the cheating) we the media. Expect bipartisanship out of the Republicans. Don’t even dream of doing what the democrats did while Trump was in the White House.
Democrats are mccains biggest fans.
By doing so, they would send a powerful message to voters, telling them, in effect, “We hear you but we don’t care.
Tear it down like those dirtbags have done to all our historical monuments.
Are you sure this isn’t The Bee?
/s
Absolutely meaningless garbage.
OMG by doing this we can tell the voters WE HEAR YOU……. more like we hear you and we don’t give a damn here is our middle finger to you!! This is an IN YOUR FACE middle finger to MAGA!! It WILL BE McCain republicans because THEY SAY SO!!!
Here’s an idea. Quit trying to turn politicians into royalty. Maybe name that building after some average guy who won the Medal of Honor. Or better yet, just call it the Senate Office Building.
Who is this axxhole?
Can somebody put up a picture of an outhouse?
Brent would be happier in Red China.
Or better yet, just call it the Senate Office Building.
*********
Yep the SOB Bldg may be a more realistic name.
Why not call it the asylum.
WTF!?!?!?
HELL NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
McCain can rot in hell.
Remember when it looked like McCain was going to win the presidency, the Democrats stopped pretending to like him and treated him just like every other Republican. Appeasing them is pointless.
