It has come to this: A former senior adviser for John McCain's 2008 presidential campaign expressed his frustration with the state of the race and suggested Tuesday that he would vote for Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton over increasingly likely Republican nominee Donald Trump.

"[T]he GOP is going to nominate for President a guy who reads the National Enquirer and thinks it's on the level," Mark Salter tweeted Tuesday. "I'm with her."

When Hillary was first elected to the Senate, she and McCain were part of a Senate committee junket to Iceland. McCain's gift from his Navy days was to be able to find alcohol in even the most unlikely places, and he came up with two bottles of a fine California red.

As I heard the story, Hillary came to his room, and as they downed those two bottles, she unburdened herself about her career failures, her unfaithful, worthless horn dog of a husband, and everything else that had gone wrong in her life. She and McCain became good friends.

McCain invited Hillary to spend weekends from DC with Cindy and Megan at his condo in Sedona. As a result, Hillary became close to McCain's wife and daughter. Cindy and Hillary would go shopping in Sedona, with Hillary wearing her dark glasses in the hope of being ignored.

That connection still exists today. We tend to forget that the US Senate is one of the most exclusive clubs in the world, and people from both sides of the aisle can form lasting friendships in spite of political differences. Barry Goldwater and Hubert Humphrey were close friends, as Barry had been with Jack Kennedy when he was in the Senate. The friendship between McCain and Hillary falls into the same category.

If there’s any doubt about the existence of the Uniparty . .

It should all be resolved by now

Maybe his history of tagging along with losers is good news for us....

[Carry me back]

McCain was for Obama. Not a surprise.

I pray McCain loses to Kelli Ward!!

[Titus-Maximus]

She is a traitor!

After 4 Americans were killed at Benghazi, on the second day she calls the president of Libya for a contribution to her global slush fund. Salter - you can have her.

Wouldn’t running a national scam where you con people with lies in order to steal their money be a RICO violation? I guess that would make this guy and Mcain and Ryan and most of the GOPe felons?

I pray McCain loses to Kelli Ward!!

He will if my vote has any meaning!!!

[chuckee]

Kelli Ward, McCain’s primary opponent should hammer McCain with his former advisor voting for Hillary. McCain does not like Trump either. Arizona Republicans went all in for Trump giving him all their delegates.Time to retire McCain for good.

[tumblindice]

Well, bye.

[thoughtomator]

They got so close they even started to commit treason together. And they’re still at it to this day.

[Billthedrill]

Oh, no, not Mark Salter! The country is lost!

Or not. Another useless establishment drone sees the scribbling on the bulkhead. Hey Mark? YOU'RE FIRED.

[kiryandil]

I won’t vote for a lying NY liberal con artist.

Hey! Ted Cruz isn't from New York!

[Hot Tabasco]

Following the 2008 election, the MSM never again mentioned “The Maverick” when referring to John McCain.........Coincidence?

[TexasTransplant]

We knew that

[TexasTransplant]

Then you get Hillary ... Thanks dwad
