John McCain once said the only reason that Rand Paul would vote against a certain bill is because Pa

I do believe McCain was a good person even though I did not agree with most of his politics
Paul Rand is a spoiled brat IMHO






John McCain once said the only reason that Rand Paul would vote against a certain bill is because Paul supports Russia.

"The Senator from Kentucky is now working for Vladimir Putin."

Aged like wine.

I am not super confident -- but I do feel we have a chance to elect Charles Booker (assuming HE wins)

Casting my vote as soon as possible as well.

...was financially supporting Booker's primary opponent, who proved (again) she wasn't up to the task. I saw later the Booker is definitely the more competent (and very experienced) politician. I wish him luck.

dirty russian connections, and then see if you still think that he was a good man. The last tiny shred of not-loathing that I had for him was gone the day he called his wife the c-word on an open mic at some event during his 2008 campaign.

While he was a POW, she waited for him and was in a car accident that left her badly disfigured. When he returned and got a look at her, he dumped her for the rich beer heiress (who stole drugs from her own charity). That even pissed off Mrs Saint Ronnie Raygun.

Also, without him it would have been the Keating Four.

McCain may have been correct about some things over the years, but he was still a typical sleazy republicon.

Fucking hardly. Motherfucker would have been pathetically begging for bipartisanship or something else equally as fucking stupid. Fuck him and ALL republicans. They’re fucking scum.
