John McCain on No GOP Endorsement: 'Lindsey Graham Was My Man'(Not paraphrasing)
news max ^ | 2/5/16 | t beamon

Posted on 02/06/2016 5:42:43 AM PST by doldrumsforgop

Sen. John McCain said Friday that he was not endorsing anyone for the Republican presidential nomination because "Lindsey Graham was my man."

"I'm staying out of this," the Arizona senator and 2008 GOP presidential candidate, told Neil Cavuto on Fox News. Graham, the South Carolina senator, dropped out of the race in December. Asked again about an endorsement, McCain responded: "No, I'm not going to. I like too many of them, to be honest with you."

McCain was questioned about his endorsement because New Hampshire holds its primaries on Tueday. The senator won primary races in the Granite State in 2000, against Texas Gov. George W. Bush, and in 2008.

The senator is featured in a new ad attacking front-runner Donald Trump released this week by Our Principles PAC, which supports rival Jeb Bush.

Amid a bevy of negative comments by Trump since his campaign began last June, the ad includes the developer's bashing of McCain's service during the Vietnam War.

The senator was captured by the Viet Cong and held for nearly six years, including two years in solitary confinement.

Nice pics, cant say from the picture if that is really al-Baghdadi or not, certainly looks like him? the ‘free Syrian Army’ pictured here became ISIS not long after, in other pictures from the same meeting it clearly shows Muahmmad Noor as one of the attendees McCains paling around with,

His man Lindsey Graham wants us to send our young men and women over and in effect become ISIS’ air force. Evil Reprobates given over to their own vain conceits,

ISIS is a demonic spirit rampaging about the middle-east and is now extending its authority wherever it can, its being helped by degenerate reprobate politicians like McCain and Graham, they are made to serve it because they already serve the same master (Satan) who also gives these same politicians their power and authority,

“And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; “ Romans 1:28

McCain and Graham and Obama and others are now working to flood the west with this same evil spirit,

Why would they do that? They ‘justify the wicked for a reward’ and this is a full on spiritual battle that is intensifying, the West had better wake up soon to whats happening,

“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Ephesians 6:12

“I’m staying out of this,”

There’s numerous things you need to stay out of, McCain....

I wouldn't be surprised if several candidates called McArrogant and, in no uncertain terms, said that they did not want his endorsement.

A McCain endorsement is the kiss of death.

I wouldn’t be surprised to learn McCain would consider being Hillary’s running mate if Cruz or Trump gets the Republican nomination over Rubio or Jeb,

The NWO establishment is getting panicky of late but I have every confidence in their abilities to get exactly who they want selected,

Maybe McAmnesty knows his endorsement is a kiss of death?

John Cornyn said in 2014 that he was the second most conservative senator and that McPain was the “most conservatives”. Nothing could ever happen to change the mind of the AZ voters, who truly believe in McPain forever.

People in AZ have never heard of the “Keating Five”. Go to Phoenix and ask, and will find that no one knows.

McCain has been an embarrassment since the Keating Five Naval Academy.

Yup, Carol is the winner. She jettisons that mill stone John McCain so he can schmooze and cuddle with this best buddy Lindsey Graham. I don't know what Mrs. Graham thinks of this but, who's to step in the way of true political love? These two slugs deserve each other. Sorry for their wives (and constituents).

Not sure we ever heard a viable explanation for his trip?

McCains willingness to embrace evil at every opportunity is ever on display, usually with his girlfriend Lindsey in tow, must’ve not let her come along on this junket for fear he might lose her,

Ah, that's even more perfect for a John McCain-Lindsey Graham marriage. Just think John, Lindsey is a virgin. McCain, however, is a complete political whore.
