WASHINGTON (AP) — Sen. John McCain is imploring his Republican colleagues to drop partisan demands and let the popular president get to work.
The Arizona Republican made his first comments on the Senate floor since his rival, President Barack Obama, was sworn into office.
He said the nation has come together in a way that it has not for some time. McCain was speaking in defense of Hillary Rodham Clinton's appointment as the next secretary of State. Senate leaders had planned to confirm her by unanimous consent on Tuesday, but Texas Republican Sen. John Cornyn objected because of concerns raised about foreign contributions to her husband's charity.
A roll call vote was planned for late Wednesday.

Must be the meds.
Yeah, can’t see the conflicts because of the bedsheets.
This fellow sure was a total loser.
I will suspend my campaign and return to Washington to be
Obama’s poodle!
Butt boy for the Clintons.
I am starting to think that the only reason that John McCain ran for President was so he could lose for Obama! Can someone tell the old fool to shut the hell up? We don’t care what he thinks!
Juan wants to help amnesty pass. Hey Juan, what happened to making sure the borders were certified as secure by all border state governors first?
That little lie didn’t take long for Juan to break.
F*** You, McLame!
From FoxNews.com:
“We need to immediately, or as soon as possible ... move forward with the nomination,” McCain said. He said two wars and a “fragile cease-fire” between Israel and Hamas make the installment of a new secretary of state imperative.
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said President Obama needs a secretary of state “right now, this minute” to be an “advocate on the world stage.”
“There’s no better advocate than Hillary Clinton,” Graham said. “I enthusiastically support her.”
I’m going to burn the grass in my yard where his sign once stood. I feel I need to go through some sort of purification ritual.
John go away and take all your Gods children with you.
John go away and take all your Gods children with you.
it is why we shouldn’t feel disappointed that McCain lost. He would have just done the same foolish things that Obama is going to do.
Hopefully the GOP in AZ will put up a legitimate conservative Republican in the primary to oust this POS Little JERK John McLame.
Imagine having to grin and swallow all the BS laws he supports all because he's a fellow GOP’er.
GLAD!!! I tell ya. GLAD !!!
Is McCain up for re-election in 2010?
Well there goes Obama’s “transparency”.
McTrain wreck trashed is own party and president at the convention and now he preaches about giving this socialist cult leader a free hand. What a loser.
rotflol!
Arizona needs to start a recall petition.
Mr. McCain must be suffering from too tight shoes or something.
Good Lord, how dumb is this guy?
