John McCain does not realize that he is an in-joke among many of his “colleagues”. He thinks he is the great statesman, who will repudiate and scold his own party when he deems it necessary.
Has he ever noticed that his “great statemanship” is rarely reciprocated when the situations are reversed? Has it ever occurred to him that his “colleagues” count on him as That Useful Idiot, that insecure old man who so desperately wants to be liked that he will debase himself to do it?
He’s no statesman. He’s sad, and he stands for very little if he’s so easily willing to cave in to avoid harsh words and raised voices.
I saw a candidate squander his capital of support when he walked out of that economic summit with not so much as a whimper. I saw him squander a campaign touched by an angel, Sarah Palin, because he was unable to step up to the plate and smack down the mountain of lies about her. I saw McCain with that jaw clamped shut as the lies continued months after his miserable loss.
Sarah Palin has made more impact from her comments on FaceBook and Twitter than McCain could in all the months of the Obamacare debate. For McCain, Twitter is what you do when it is time for more than wetting your pants in fear.
I see him as a man who would cower into the fetal position the moment the electric drill came on to scare him into submission to the DEMONRATS.
Hey McCain! Brrrrrrrrzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz! Brrrrrrrrzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz! Brrrrrrrrzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!
