John McCain is supposedly trying to hang on till past May 31st, after which he will either die or resign.
The reason: so the PEOPLE don't get to choose his successor!
If he dies or resigns before May 31st, there will have to be an election to fill out his term (he was just reelected in 2016).
If he dies or resigns after that, then the governor can appoint somebody until the 2020 election.
And McCain has already supposedly given the governor a list of people to succeed him, one of which would be his wife, Cindy. And wouldn't that be special!
The Senate seat is HIS, ya see!
John McCain. Odious to the end, and if he has his way, even AFTER the end!
Before anyone listens to him, they should demand proof of life
Oh yeah, not the least bit surprised. Look for this cretin to change his party so that the governor has to appoint a dem.
Nothing is beneath this thing.
He should be declared incompetent. He has been for a long time.
bkmk
In-state home ownership is not a requirement.
May God have Mercy on his soul; I find none in my heart.
Along with whizzing on Hanoi Jane’s tombstone this are at the top of many bucket lists.
The governor can appoint anyone he wants.
Said this on FR three years ago.
He wants either Cindy or Boobs to replace him.
So they can flip to RAT three months later.
Back in I think 2008, a fellow FR spotted a “Emily’s List” pin on Cindy’s dress.
I’m pretty sure this is the threat McCain held over GWB.
“Give me what I want or I’ll leave the GOP”
The Question...... what does the governor want? What does the party want?
Is the old man the party?
His day is over and I think the party will move on
My bet is he’s been dead for months, just like Castro.
I can live with his daughter, Meghan. She’s gutsy and also conservative. I feel sorry for her having to live with the knowledge her dad is a mess.
Megan MehCain a gutsy conservative???
She’s the same nut off of the McStain?RINO tree.
No thanks.
No, she isn’t. Do you watch her? I like her.
My dad passed away from same form of cancer. Near the end, one day he seemed clear-headed, lucid, yet 12 days later, he was gone. It’s not the kind of life-ending state where one would be kept alive on a ventilator. But I’m not a doctor, so I couldn’t say for sure.
Don’t forget the Savings and Loan scandal he profited from.
Yep! That solves everything.
McCain is the poster boy for why the 17th amendment should be repealed.
There are a lot of such poster children, including Pennsylvania's very own village idiot Bob Casey, Jr.
Yes.That too. He’s scum.
If Ducey wants to be re-elected he had better not appoint anyone on that list
Die bastard! Just die already. Even on your deathbed you’re a major pain in the ass of America.
