The Republican candidate for President....

John McCain is back, screwing with his party leadership, and calling for an immediate voice vote on Hillary Clinton's confirmation.

  • It reads more like he's screwing more with Cornyn than the leadership, per se. But still... I like the "drinking buddies" visual of McCain and H. Clinton.

  • My State's shame is leadership now, head of the NRCC, and it appears he's been given the oppositional role in the confirmation hearings, probably because he's not afraid to say anything.

    I remember him from such scenes as "the main Republican defending torture."

  • I didn't know that. So Cronyn is what passes for a mainline Republican these days. May they all go the way of the Dodo...

  • Well, he's a red Senator from a very red state. He can be as crazy as he wants, and his seat is likely secure.

    He is part of the Southern rump.
