This is precisely what Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) has done.
Clinton, a prospective 2016 Democratic presidential candidate, will appear on stage Saturday with McCain at the Sedona Forum, an annual ideas festival hosted by the McCain Institute for International Leadership at Arizona State University.

Maybe she’s lining up his endorsement for her presidential run. The way he does things, I wouldn’t put it past him to do so and with her balls, I wouldn’t put it past her to ask.

McCain and Kerry chose to forget the POWs and MIAs from the Viet Nam War. So this is not surprising that he would forget Benghazi.

Again McCain reaches across the isle to kiss the democrat ring.

McCain is the poster boy for term limits and decentralizing Washington D.C. He epitomizes the so-called “political class”—a giant self-worshiping circle jerk.
