sure is loyal to their party.

If Fux Ruse and the fucking moron tell you over and over that the GOP Senator is a terrible person they fall in line and goose step forgetting all of the respect they had for him when he ran in 2012. They drank the Kool Aid willingly.

party, and a man who ran for President in that party too! There were many policies I disagreed with him on, but he always respected him; the INLY rethug I DID respect!

so the lunatic fringe makes up an ever-increasing percentage of the people left in the party

We really can't expect much from the "I'd rather sell my country to Russia than be a Democrat!" crowd

That myth, needs to be squashed because it is a LIE.

Remember it was the republican Congress that refused to provide extra security to the embassy in Libya

a campaign finance reform bill with Russ Feingold and stood up against torture. In 2001 , Senate Democrats tried to get him to switch parties. McCain was a mixed bag but it’s unimaginable today that a Republican would stand up for any of those things. Also CNN is reporting that he requested that Obama give one of the eulogies. Much respect.
