My thoughts exactly. he’s way past normal retirement age, his wife owns a very large Budweiser distributorship, and from what I’ve read, he retires at 100% Senate salary-does he also get military retirement? Why is he hanging on?

“Power — the only thing that he has ever been in it for.”

It is more than just power. Ever since McCain was “overlooked” in 2000, he has apparently dedicated the balance of his life to GETTING EVEN WITH CONSERVATIVES. He hates us!

At least he is staying in the fight! He is NOT dropping out and running as an independent!

John McCain has done many things I did not agree with, but many more that I did.

Did JD get defeated in his reelection bid for Congress, or did he quit?

It would be nice to have a candidate that you agree with 100%, How does that happen? He agrees with you 100%, how can any candidate agree with all 100%..

Probably true, he always has felt more comfortable on the Left side of the aisle than he has on the Right.

But make no mistake -- even if John McCain is out of office in Arizona, he will still be chair of one of the most powerful NGO's in the world -- The International Republican Institute. Just check their list of donors (beyond us taxpayers). The IRI has as much if not more political clout on US foreign policy, than the US State Department. McCain will continue on as Chairman there even if he is out of office.
