Turds ahead Cap'n

“ In the Democrat-held Senate McCain is the ‘model prisoner’ As seen   It is now clear that Sen. John S. McCain III (R.-Ariz.) has completed his transition from being the Senate’s “maverick” to becoming the upper body’s model prisoner. McCain was livid. He was so livid that the next morning he and Sen. Lindsey O. Graham (R.-S.C.) came to the floor to denounce Paul and the other senators in the filibuster as “whacko birds.” It is not just that McCain is a snitch, running to the press or the Senate floor, whenever a rebellious conservative disturbs the good order and discipline of upper chamber. The son and grandson of Navy admirals now meets in secret with the warden, Majority Leader Harry Reid (D.-Nev.), to cook up new ways to undermine and thwart conservatives. McCain was always a sketchy character. But, what really turned him into the warden’s pet was the worldwide phenomenon of Sen. Randall H. Paul (R-Ky.) filibustering the on the Senate floor from just before lunch March 6 until 12:30 a.m., the next morning. [] Nobody expects different behavior from McCain, so he's pretty much just another turd in the alley.  But. The more I think about it, the more I'm inclined to believe that McCain picked Sarah Palin because he knew he was going to lose, and wanted a weak VP on the ticket he could blame.  Instead, picking Palin may be remembered as his only accomplishment, or  noble thing the man did in his entire public life. ”
