There will be little opposition to renaming the Russell Building to the McCain Building.

Russell was a Segregationist and co-authored the Southern Manifesto.

No member of the Senate is going to take to the Senate Floor and argue that that building should remain named after a Segregationist.

And they need to get rid of all the Robert Bird buildings too.

Russell was a senatorial giant McCain a greedy dwarf. In light of events unfolding every day the sentiments of the Southern Manifesto, which addressed the need for state’s rights, seem much less wrong than ten or fifteen years ago.
