For adults with more aggressive glioblastoma, treated with concurrent temozolamide and radiation therapy, median survival is about 14.6 months and two-year survival is 30%. However, a 2009 study reported that almost 10% of patients with glioblastoma may live five years or longer.

"Perfectly said! And to think this man actually was the GOP nominee for President of this country."

Chosen by the GOPe and the liberal media.

“No comment.”

Apparently not.

Good grief.

Thanks. Interesting, though, in that he doesn’t seem in much of a hurry to defend his comment.

Hopefully he did some research and discovered that our hatred of McCain goes back well before Trump ever showed up.

It’s interesting to see how many vile comments can be made about this lifelong patriot, a true American hero, and a conservative whose great sin is he doesn’t buy in to blind love of Trump and his gimcrack, make-it-up as you go brand of conservatism.

You like illegal immigration amnesty? Then McCain's your guy.

The winner then serves only until McCain would face reelection.

Which is 2022.

I have lymphoma, but a very non-virulent form of it. My oncologist says I can probably fulfill my lifelong dream of being shot by a jealous husband when I am 93.

If it was you getting chemo, good luck.

McCain just got re-elected in 2016. I hope Gov Ducey replaces him with a true conservative who will support President Trump and his agenda.

PLEASE Senator MCCain, do the right thing for yourself, your wife and your country—resign/retire now. You will be too sick to work, don’t even think about being a “martyr,” clinging to your senate seat knowing that you cannot do your job. Don’t be selfish, resign/retire now.

That was back in the GOPe “It’s my turn era!” That period is gone!

No, it’s dead women like Kate Steinl that he supports more of, not simply illegals.

Actually, that’s the process in almost all states, with the main exception being some states that require a special election sooner than the next general election.

And you are crossing the line.
Shameful misrepresentation of bias as facts. You need to find somewhere that you can show us how much better you could do than President Trump has done and that you are 1/2 the man he is.

I’m 69, and I’m the last from my immediate family.

That old saying is true: life is what happens to you while you're making other plans.

I agree. I think its a big mistake to not have term limits in Congress. Unfortunately, it’s up to Congress to set term limits on Congress.

Maybe McCain's planning to do that. Or blame the Russians. It's a toss-up.
