Democrat Mole Prepares to Resume Infiltration of Republican Caucus
Now I hope you take the title as a bit of hyperbole (one of my favorite things) but this article by the AP has got to make a person wonder. The story is about how McCain is preparing to stake out a new role for himself in the Senate.
Democrats, who padded their majorities in the House and Senate, have a suggestion: McCain can mediate solutions to partisan standoffs on key legislation as he did to help avert a constitutional meltdown over judicial confirmations in 2005.
“There’s a need for the old John McCain, a leader who worked in a bipartisan way,” Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said Wednesday.
in conceding the presidency to Obama Tuesday night at a Phoenix hotel, McCain pledged “to do all in my power to help him lead us through the many challenges we face
Aides said they believed McCain would work well with Obama as president because much of his best work in the Senate had been done with Democrats, including a landmark campaign finance law he crafted with Wisconsin Sen. Russ Feingold and an unsuccessful effort with Massachusetts Sen. Edward M. Kennedy to pass comprehensive immigration reform.
The story concludes the McCain is at peace with himself with his loss. Here he all but hands off the White House to a guy like Obama and the day after he’s OK with that. Now I can’t imagine that anyone would intentionally lose the election but I also find it hard to believe that anyone could run such an incompetent campaign. Why would you unilaterally disarm by accepting public funds for the campaign. Why would you be campaigning on issues divisive to the base? Why would you back off from highlighting Obama’s most glaring weaknesses?
Now McCain is going to play nice and help advance Obama’s agenda. How nice.
The sooner this guy is out of public office the better off we will be.
Oh, and Barrack, congratulations. I’m going to be one of thousands who are going to be holding your feet to the fire. You got to the ultimate job without taking responsibility for anything. Guess what, you can’t slide by anymore.
