The family needs to have a down to earth chat with John and urge him to retire now. He has embarrassed a huge number of his supporters and will go down as a bitter old man that only a handful of disgusting power hungry libs can say one kind word.
If McStain is truly ill, as they say he is....it is likely the family (cough, cough, Cindy) making these absurd statements, for him.
They need to just let this old codger/traitor go quietly, in to that night.
This has become an embarrassing sham.
