“Actually, Ms Coulter is correct. He would be stupid enough to do it.”
I’m pretty sure there must be Republican Party rules against such apostasy...but rules seem to be pretty liquid these days.
And McCain *would* be stupid enough to do it, just to be a media darling for a little longer.

You raise an interesting question. US political parties are unlike the European ones, which have the power to expel members when they become apostates. Theoretically only here, if McCain directed his controlled delegates to the Republican Convention to support Hillary Clinton for Veep, that would be it, plain and simple.
How else can you explain Dan Quail and Spiro T. Agnew, to name two obvious examples?
