Oh sorry, I didn't know they all claimed to be "mavericks"  

I didn't know a maverick always had to disagree with his party

Yea but maybe he should when he supposedly disagrees with them.  Otherwise, the maverick thing is sort of bullshit.  

What do I know.

You obviously don't know the rules of engagement in Top Gun. Now get your butt above the hard deck.

Dude I don't know what you're disputing.  He could have voted to keep it off the floor.  He didn't.  I think he's full of shit.  That's my opinion.  It's not changing today.

Except, you know, he did. If you look under McCain...yes. 

 

At at this point, the Maverick has voted with Trump over 90% of the time

By the way. They held a vote on the original senate bill tonight. Guess which mavericky name is missing from this list  

 

The Better Care Reconciliation Act went down, 43-57, with nine Republicans voting no: Susan Collins (Maine), Tom Cotton (Ark.), Bob Corker (Tenn.), Lindsey Graham (S.C.), Dean Heller (Nev.), Mike Lee (Utah), Jerry Moran (Kan.), Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) and Rand Paul (Ky.)

[Amazing Larry]

Rand Paul in da house (actually Senate)!

Psssst. He just did.

McCain is the Bud Norris of the Senate.

 

 

[red321]

Seriously. If he was going to do that why the hell did he make Scioscia spend all that time making defensive changes. Just say,,,sosh. Don't worry, I got this.

From a friend on Facebook.  "I guess McCain needs to go back for some spine surgery."

There is for some reason a distinct difference is posting styles by Red from morning/early morning and late night. Perhaps warrants further study.

If he actually lived up to his pr and didn't prove time and again he was nothing more than a partisan hack that probably wouldn't be the case.

Is there literally ANY politician on either side that isnt a partisan hack? 

[mtangelsfan]

Well, nine republicans didn't vote for the bill.

Dems, zero crossed party lines

[floplag]

McCain voted to continue to the process, he did not vote in favor of the bill and actually said he would not do so. 
Fail to see how this makes him the anti-christ other than the obvious exaggerations and partisan hatreds  (the true irony of all this).   One would think he would get credit for that as opposed to just letting the process fester, i guess one would be wrong as clearly nothing short of killing it would matter to some and i think we all know that isnt going to happen.

This is the spot where you expect to see bi partisanship from the democrats.

If he did i missed that and i would also be upset at him to be honest after saying he would not on the same day.   I didnt hear there even was a vote on the bill itself... can you provide link please?  
If i missed that then my prior comment would be retracted, but to me there is a big difference between proceeding with the process and voting to pass a final product.

Yeah, not the final, and not the same thing as it was previously after amendments.  Were lumping too much into one basket here for the purpose of justification.

I do not support anything that will leave citizens without care, but i never supported Obamacare, still dont, and do think we need something else that addresses the real issues in healthcare rather than put the govt in the business for a piece of the pie.
