McCain: I Disagree Most With Cruz
Newsmax ^ | December 4, 2015 | John Gizzi

Posted on 12/04/2015 10:11:20 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., says his Senate colleague Ted Cruz is the Republican presidential hopeful with whom he has the sharpest disagreement and singled out the Texan’s vote against the National Defense Authorization Act as the chief reason.

During a discussion of this year’s 2016 GOP presidential hopefuls, Newsmax asked McCain which three he felt had the best records on national security and which three had the worst.

“I don’t like to duck a question,” he replied, with a laugh, and restated his support for South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham....

“Send him a check, Ted. He’s doing better for you than a thousand TV commercials.”

I agree. Ted should be very happy.

Wow! I was really supporting Trump...but after this endorsement from McCain, I may have to give Cruz a second look!

The oligarchy loathes Cruz. They thought he was safe in the senate with his banker wife. He betrayed them.

The oligarchy fears Trump. They know he is electable and uncontrollable.

John McCain almost single handedly sunk the USS Forrestal. What a f*ucking joke. Seriously, he hot flashed a guy behind him on warm up and this popped off a Zuni missile that caused a massive fire and a series of explosions that almost suck a 2B warship (in in 1970 dollars). What a POS. Only his daddy being JCoS saved his pathetic fucked up a**. Dont take my word for it. Look it up.

If Cap’n McQueeg is against Cruz, you know Cruz is a great man and Conservative leader. I can’t wait to see State Sen. Kelli Ward take down the Manchurian Candidate once and for all.

Ain’t nothin’ compared to his taking a dive for his good friend Zero in 2008.

Well given that it’s McCain that’s quite an endorsement.

If I were Cruz, I’d make an ad about this. I couldn’t make myself vote for McCain, even with Obama as his opponent. Judas McCain is to conservatism what Obama is to budget balancing.

I wonder if it ever occurs to McCain that the reason he lost is because he has no clue what the American people want in terms of a POTUS.

Probably not.

So does this mean McCain is endorsing Trump or Rubio?

You kow that asterisk you see next to Lindsey Graham's name in the polls? That means "We could not find anyone polling for him, so we called up McCain".

He probably either blames Palin, or there’s nothing to blame cause he intended to lose all along. What an azzzzzzzzzz!

And yet Cruz and Juan voted the same way on many issues, including TPA and the corker bill.

Ward is pulling a Bob Dole to focus her attention on McStain.

The minor candidates running need to be forced out.
