This is a man who a week ago, while on the Sean Hannity radio show, was literally frightened by the prospect of whatever outcome came out of this saga. He was afraid of "what the people would think" (i.e., they would blame Republicans); he was wholly supportive of the McConnell proposal to allow the President to raise the debt limit on his own; he lamented to Hannity--who to Sean's credit, pressed McCain NOT to give and and raise the debt limit unconditionally--McCain essentially abdicated his role as a U.S. Senator, saying "someone needs to give me a better option!"

Whatever honorable service this man gave to his country decades ago, he sounded like a complete coward. He is not worthy to serve as a senator. He spoke like a man who had no understanding of the situation, and worse, no understanding of politics nor of the strength of the Republican's position. Left to him, he would completely cave.

Senator McCain, it's better to die on your feet, than to survive on your knees. You should've learned that from Viet Nam.

His behavior is evidencing, once again, someone who has been battered and abused.....an appeaser and whinner...."afraid of what people will think", which is self -serving. That's why he wil never stand on any issue and fight til it's done if he's opposed. He will always compromise or give up...or sit back andlet others do the deeds. He IS unfit for this office....and by his actions as a Republican Senetor he has pretty much wiped out the honor given for his time in Vietnam IMO.
