John McCain once took on Hillary Clinton in a drinking contest. It was at a restaurant in Estonia in 2004, during a congressional tour. Both politicians managed four shots of vodka; the rules were unclear, but Hillary -- McCain's one-time political rival -- was declared the winner, according to the restaurant proprietor (though in her own account, Clinton said they "agreed to withdraw in honorable fashion," rather than name a winner).
That image sums up the humanity and character of the late Senator McCain, who will be mourned deeply on both sides of the political aisle. He embodied a more moderate brand of conservatism -- one that could separate politics and friendship -- that now feels distant and very much missed.

That they colluded with the Russians many years before Trump was accused of doing so?
It tells me they’re lushes.
How many non-alcoholics could drink 4 vodka shots and not be staggering drunk?
All airframes can breathe a sigh of relief now.
It always riles me when the fake news uses terms such as “us” or “we.” This ostensibly makes “us” part of their faction, speaking for “us” without our permission. Don’t assume you have our permission to speak for “us” CNN. Screw you.

Good grief, no wonder the Commie “News” Network has lost viewers
Get up off your kneepads, Timothy . . . your “Maverick” is stiff in the wrong way for you
“He embodied a more moderate brand of conservatism”
watered down,
diluted,
soft,
who wants any of that in conservatism?
“Two elitists and at least one drunk.”
I am pretty sure we’re talking about two drunks.
Me!
If Trump and Hillary had drinks together, it was Diet Coke for Trump. He has never consumed alcohol in his entire life.
Yep, fake sympathy from fake news
When you realize and accept that Lyin Johnny was a Liberal POS Commie Democrat from the start, it all makes sense.
He was never a Republican, he was never a compromiser. He was a Democrat who held his seat as a Republican. Plain and simple, period.
I hope he made peace with God and found salvation through Jesus Christ, but I doubt anyone but Satan cares about his soul.
It tells that McCain was working for Hillary when he passed on the Dossier
to the FBI.

PS - When people say “Oh have respect for the dead” I wonder if they also would have given Hitler a moment of silence and refused to speak the truth about him.
the media is going full Wellstone.
they are trying to shape a nostalgia for weakness.
the naming of the senate building would be McCain S.O.B.
Hitler goes to a fortune-teller and asks, "When will I die?" And the fortune-teller replies, "On a Jewish holiday." Hitler then asks, "How do you know that?" And she replies, "Any day you die will be a Jewish holiday."
Exactly, just like Romney, same thing. Romney was on fire, ripping Obama, Obama looked drugged out in one debate. Next, Obama came back with a vengence and knocked the stuffing out of Romney.
Our party runs candidates or their opponents.
It strikes me that the liberal outlets are expressing their love for McCain. It kind of tells you whose side he was on.
