ANYBODY who has a Democrat for a "deep, personal friend" is of great suspicion to me. Luger and Stevens are (were) the worst Republicans. You cannot serve two masters.

Time for John and Miss Lindsey to "ride off into the sunset". McCain has been in the Senate for far too long.

They must stop this!!!!!

Interesting article. Senator McCain is as petulant as the light in the loafers man-child in the oral office. McCain spent too many years in confinement.

We not only need term limits but a retirement age. Capitol Hill looks like a retirement home with dementia approaching.

OK. So instead of getting wiped out in 2000 by an obviously stupid but not yet obviously crazy Al Gore, he hangs around and gets wiped out in 2008 by a Kenyan Marxist metrosexual.

McCain, W and his people weren´t your problem.

McPain is well past his "sell-by" date. He has already clabbered and has started to go sour and stink. Throw him out. Sissy Lindsey ain´t worth discussing.

It´s over for McCain. He just doesn´t know it yet. He has spent the last of his POW capital. It is gone. Go away.

It´s really a shame that the voters in AZ and SC are allowed to inflict these two on everyone. Can anything be done to stop them? I´m sure by now McCain must have plenty of Senators who just absolutely hate his guts. Can´t they get together and freeze him out?

McCain destroyed J.D. Hayworth´s reputation during the last senate primary in Arizona. He was all over Hayworth for being a lobbyist after losing his house seat in 2006. Hayworth, unlike McCain, is married to an ordinary woman, not a beer heiress. Too bad Hayworth had to work for a living, unlike McCain.

McCain can dish it out but can´t take it. What a baby. He thinks when he gets all mavericky, he will be invited to all of best parties. He wants to be cool and dine with Obama. Graham is just a limp-wristed toady who will nod in agreement with whatever Boss McCain says.

Thanks, #6, that´s what I was thinking.

2008 should stick in his craw but, instead, he´s probably proud of his involvement in putting the first African-American in the White House. He´s just that big a fool.

You can´t do business with crooks and that is what politics is totally about.

anyone that would consider Juan F.Cary as his BBF is suspect as far as I am concerned.

Best D.C. staffer joke: When McCain got old and started taking Viagra, he simply grew 2 inches taller.

This article makes absolutely no sense. The Bush family was opposed to Ted Cruz when he ran for the Senate and were intense supporters of Cruz´s primary opponent Lt. Govornor David Dewhurst. The real reason McCain and Graham are opponents of Cruz remains ideological, liberal (McCain, Graham) vs. conservative (Cruz).

Apparently,neither McCain or Graham ever heard of Reagan´s 11th commandment. They could have easily said they disagree with what Paul did but they defend his right to do so.Calling people like Paul,Rubio and Cruz crackpots or some variation of it, is party disloyalty.


I don´t think it has a damn thong to do with the Bushes.I never even heard of McCain´s black baby thing until well after that election.Even if I did,i couldn´t have cared less about it.

This whole episode exposes why McCain lost in 2008. A lot of people saw him as thin skinned and short tempered.They were particularly scared of him starting a war with Iran when people were fed up with the Iraq War.When you have an idiot like Steve Schmidt as your main campaign adviser,it shows how bad he would have been at picking cabinet people. Lieberman would have gotten the first open post.

The only reason he won the 2008 primary is because republican base voters respected his military service.It didn´t hold much water with the general population voters.

I´ll bet a thousand bucks that Mccain is secretly ashamed and regretful he picked Palin for VP.She was an instant rock star after her convention speech but McCain blew all that capital and momentum by leaving the trail to "help" mediate the Wall St. crisis.This exposed his knee jerkism and sense of self importance.

#15, in the 2012 Texas Senate race, the members of the Bush family who endorsed a candidate had to choose between Ted Cruz, who had worked hard in the George W. Bush presidential campaigns and David Dewhurst, whom George W. had known well and served with for several years in Texas state government. Sometimes choices are hard, but maybe this background will help you understand what you perceive as "not making sense".

I have the feeling Cruz will come out on top....Mc´s & Lindsey´s popularity is zerooooo..

This article is one of a rash they´re rushing out to deflect attention from what´s really going on. That is, the rise of the replacement players for the establishment GOP. No one wants this except the people.

Oh sure, blame the Bushes. That libtard RINO McCain only has to look at himself to see what a loser looks like.

No Bushes.No McPains!

Ted Cruz is no George Bush. The senate and the country have already discovered that. This article is made up crapola. McCain and Graham think they are the leaders of the senate gop and can´t stand anyone else speaking up, especially freshman senators who do not agree or like them.

FTA:"The friendship between John McCain and Lindsey Graham started during the1999 Clinton impeachment hearings when Graham served on the House Judiciary Committee and was liaison to the Senate. They hit it off immediately, and developed a deep, personal friendship."
This explains a LOT! These twins are the progeny of Bill and Monica.

IIRC, McCain had to dispel the stories about his bad temper during the 2000 primaries. Some in the media were hinting that his being a POW brought out some ugliness in him; therefore, what would happen if he had his finger on nuclear weapons?

I think that is a valid question. His temper was not George W. Bush´s fault! IMO, the bed he has made for himself is his own doing.

This has everything to do with power. McCain sees his influence is slipping among conservatives, if not Republicans. As McCain goes, so goes Graham, whose only "value" is as McCain´s wingman and sycophant. The rest is filigree. If Cruz was part of the GOP "moderate" Amen chorus, he´d be a statesman. The same goes for anyone who is bucking the McCain/Graham/McConnell "leadership."

McCain has made a career out of having been a POW....apparently the high point of his entire life. Most POWs that I know of have moved on with their lives and never talked about the experience. McCain should move on as well, since in his own words the North Vietnamese broke him and he spilled his guts to them. Nothing to be proud of. He has become a bitter old hack politician whose time has long past. Time to retire to Sun City and take Grandma Lindsey with him.

In his bitterness and confusion, he attacks conservatives that have legitimate concerns about obama´s ignorance of our constitution. This is after he allowed an inexperienced, black socialist to whip his butt in a presidential election.

Mikie McPain and ´Lucielle´ Lindsey Graham Cracker...yep, RINO´s from the stone age. Cruz will take no prisoners on these two clowns.

It´s nice to see McCain´s RINO colors shining through. Ted Cruz is the face of the new party.
McCain sees his power slipping away. I hope he enjoyed his last supper with Obama.
I believe McCain voted for Obama in 2008 instead of voting for himself.
It´s time for John McCain to meet the pasture.

I have thought long and hard on this matter. The most poignant and concise comment I can come up with is, "F### McCain."

McVain, just as much a traitor in the halls of Congress as he was in the cells of Hanoi.
