    Default McCain is AWOL

    when is the last time he did work for his Senate office?
    Now it's doubtful he'll be available for a Pompeo clearing committee.

    Mccain is a selfish bastard who only tweets #NeverTrump screed.
    He should have resigned for health aspects..I doubt he comes back for any Senatorial duties.

    Let someone else be appointed who can do their duty

    McCain is gravely ill.. His peers are not busting his chops, why are you?

    Remember the speech he made right after the healthcare vote? He was brilliant.. truly brilliant.

    If he’s capable, I suspect he will retire after November, when is vote won’t be so important.

    We have the intellect to imagine the finality of our own demise but do not have the sophistication to overcome our survival instinct and accept it.
    Solution? Magical thinking and childish promises of everlasting life.
    Ergo, religion.

    Ask yourself honestly if this describes what you believe to be true.
    If the answer is yes, you are a racist.

    I’m only hoping that Kennedy and Ginsberg will put off retirement until late 2020.

    because he can't do his duty ..he couldn't even vote on

    Sen. McCain returning to Arizona, will miss tax bill vote

    McCain is unlikely to return to Washington this year, one of the sources said. But his ability to get on a plane to Arizona was a "good sign," a source said.
    McCain left Walter Reed Medical Center "exhausted, but ok," a Republican close to him said.
    McCain's daughter, Meghan McCain, confirmed that the senator would be in Arizona for Christmas.

    has he even shown up in DC this year?. Go home and die in peace, but let the work of the Senate be done by a physically capable Senator

    What’s the matter, the Republicans don’t think they can win the seat in November?

    This thread exemplifies the conservative compassion we've all come to know and love. They even eat their own kind.

    glad to hear you say that.
    whatever one thinks of Mccain, that seem like a basic bottom line concept
