That's why he is called:
Johnny "MeAllTheTime" MeCain!
To: Valin
He is liked by the MSM and hated by conservatives. I hope he likes it that way.

Johnny "MeAllTheTime" MeCain!I don't know how Team Bush kept MeCain from campaigning with Kerry during the election... perhaps I don't want to know.

Do not get between him and a camera. He and Bill Clinton are alike. Me, Me, Me, all the time.

I don't care what he did in Vietnam, McCainiac is an idiot and a traitor to the GOP. Was there REALLY no one in Arizona who could have challenged him for his seat in 2004?

McCain has his people at this site after he won one primary. They could not take the heat and his went down hill from there. The FR is one of McCain's biggest problems.

nuclear option = shortsighted. if we do it, it will come back to haunt us. you want everything shoved down our throats the minute they get 51 senators?
To: bmwcyle
McCain remains a charlatan and certainly not a conservative. A RINO opportunist. The right does not want anything to do with him, so now he is SLUMMING by catering to the left. We have his number.

I don't care what he did in Vietnam, McCainiac is an idiot and a traitor to the GOP.What he did in Vietnam was fly a few sorties before being shot down and trade on his father's recognition to get special medical treatment.

The minute they get 51 senators, the Dems will invoke their own nuclear option. It can be implemented by simple majority vote. Whether it is passed now or not has no bearing on its use in the future. Either the GOP embraces the option and gets things done, or it wastes this golden opportunity (control of the Presidency and the Senate).
Besides, the Option only really works in advice and consent. Any legislative bill a filibuster-less Dem-controlled Senate might pass would still have to get through the House and earn a Presidential signature. I wouldn't be too concerned about this haunting us too much in the future--the greatest regrets are things you don't do.

He knows he won't go in the rapture, and is aligning himself with the future DemonRat majority.
