Normally we prefer Republicans nicknamed “Maverick” to act a little more mavericky than this.

@JedediahBila McCain is such an efficient leader, he plans his failures ahead of time so he can say “I Told You So!” @jaketapper

The Senate will certainly never vote down Obamacare as long as Republicans are in the minority (which can be changed), and it’ll certainly never happen as long as some of those Republicans are the Democrats’ best friend.
@jaketapper who ever said McCain was ever rational? He needs to switch parties.

However, McCain’s trying to save the GOP, or something:

Iowahawk summed up the situation as only he can in this tweet from earlier today:
It's political suicide to stop the most hated government program in history. #DCThink
