The legacy that keeps on giving.
I hope their mamas raised them right, and the higher-ups in the Democratic Party were polite enough to have sent Mr. McCain flowers or maybe a subscription to the Liver Spot-Cream-of-the-Month Club when McCain-Feingold passed.
I would be just sick to think think that Mr. McCain didn't get anything for all of his hard work and bi-partisanship.

In truth, I don't blame the Democrats one bit for this. I don't trust them as far as I could throw them, of course, but why should they go along with destroying something that helps them so much and hurts the GOP?
If we walk away with anything, it should be that we will, in the future, steadfastly refuse to flinch when McCain's siren call of "Reach around across the aisle" is heard. We should never forget that the siren's pretty song hides certain death on the hidden rocks.*
Democrats aren't stupid, you know. Just dishonest and not-so-nice.
*Please, someone Photoshop McCain's head onto a mermaid's body. Fr some reason I find that mental image very funny.
