Wow. I heard that he was discontinuing treatment for his cancer last night. That was quick.
And with McCain dies Republican bipartisanship in Congress.
His bipartisanship consisted of avowed intent to stall the confirmation of any Supreme Court candidate Hillary clinton might nominate for 4 or 8 years to make sure the Democrats do not get to place any condidage onto the Supreme Court regardless of the outcome of the 2016 election.
He is a partisan hack through and through. That he looks magisterial and noble next to trump is an indication of how bottomless is the abyss into which the country has fallen, not an indication that he personally has not always reveled fairly deep in the cesspool.
Winston Churchill said he would make a favorable reference to the devil in the House of Commons if hitler invaded hell. McCain is that devil. He has not Un-fallen. It’s just that hitler had invaded.
