    I didn't like McCain's approach to foreign policy much, but he seemed like a pretty decent guy to me.

    In hindsight though he had Putin pegged and I doubt that the latter would have annexed Crimea, started a civil war in the Donbas or gave direct military assistance to the Assad regime had McCain won the 2008 and 2012 elections. Putin would have learned early on that McCain was not one to offer meaningless foreign policy resets or draw imaginary lines the sand.

    I actually think McCain could have beat Obama in 2008 if he hadn’t been saddled with that lightweight bimbo, Sarah Palin as a running mate.

      I must admit I thought at the time that the Palin choice was a huge blunder.

      I was only joking

        I don’t and if my memory serves me well, nor did you in 2008.

              2018 - after the death of John McCain

              "The 'Maverick' has died. Four days shy of his 82nd birthday Senator John Mccain passed away at his Cornville, Arizona home after a courageous battle with cancer. A war hero, icon and a force to be reckoned with. Sending my deepest condolences to his family at this painful time."

              2022 - After kissing the shoes of President Trump

              We don't have any McCain Republicans in here, do we?" eliciting boos from her supporters.

              "Okay, if you [are], get the hell out," she added with a laugh.

              Elsewhere at the event, Lake again noted that the Republican party was "the party of McCain," sneering her face before saying, "I know. Boy, Arizona has delivered some losers, haven't they?

              Am thinking that today Lake might be regretting rubbishing McCain’s memory and legacy to garner favour with the Trump crowd.
