Republicans would be better off if a dem took that seat.
If McCain gave a hoot about anyone but himself he’d resign, die in peace, and let the Gov exercise his right to appoint a successor. However we all know that McCain only gives a hoot about himself and is utterly graceless.
All governors should appoint all Senators.
Juan McShame ought to follow Thad Cochran’s example and resign.
He hasn’t been able to fulfill his senatorial duties for quite sometime already and he should step down, allowing Governor Ducey to replace him.
Arizona desperately needs two MAGA voices in the upper chamber.
BTW, I’m not thrilled with the prospect of Martha McSally succeeding Flake. Every time I watch her in an interview, she makes me cringe when she says something to the effect of a “border wall system.”
In any case, I wish Arizona well in electing/replacing their two horrible senators.
Of course, I’m stuck in Maryland with two miserable RATS!!
I’m sure McCain is behind the Democrats organizing this.
He really wants his Emily List wife to replace him just before she flips to RAT
Remember how the Democrat super majority in the Massachusetts legislature kept changing the law to be whatever was most convenient at any given moment when it came to replacing a U.S. Senator (like when Romney was Governor)?
In case anyone is unable to read between the lines, this means they expect McCain to be deceased before May 31st.
Shows his real nature of power madness.
If McCain knows he can’t go back, he should resign prior to that date, but I’m thinking he intends to and believes he will be back.
“has been recovering “
Hmmm, not so much “recovering”.
I wonder if the reason for this bill is to let the Gov appoint a conservative (Kelli Ward) and give her time to make her bones with the voters.
McSally will have plenty of donor dough to run, and the conservatives wouldn’t be mad then.
Ha! Ha! Just imaginng the Republican Party had a brain...
I hope the trader is hanging by a rope by then.
either he lied about his dx or the media lied for him, OR he's been given some secret treatment only given to the rich and famous that nobody else can get for this terminal disease...
Sheriff Joe, - soon to be Senator Joe.
What is the true story on McCain’s health? Is he practically on his deathbed or doing just OK? When was the last time he was seen?
Not a good luck. That’s the kind of BS they pulled in Massachusetts when Ted Kennedy was at death’s door.
Given how well the Republicans are doing in special elections... I think they just shot themselves in the foot. McCain isn’t going to be miraculously healed. He should have resigned by now because he sure isn’t serving anybody’s interests beside his own at this point.
Headline should read John McCain, dead before November.
Can’t say I’ll miss him.

Lindas head got stuck?
