*holds up hand in class* Question on procedure... Will McInsane be a ranking member in 2013? freshwest Nov 2012 #6

No: he's not in the majority party frazzled Nov 2012 #17

I know he's not in the majority, but the seats on the committees must be assigned bipartisanly. freshwest Nov 2012 #37

Each party makes its own committee assignments frazzled Nov 2012 #38

And the GOP wants someone to jump up and play the fool. I don't for one minute believe John or Dana freshwest Nov 2012 #41

McCain is going to lose his committee seat in January... Spazito Nov 2012 #58

Wow, that's extra disgusting. And I haven't read anything good from the tribes in AZ about McCain. freshwest Nov 2012 #60

I suspect that whenever he does leave the Senate, either voluntarily or by electoral defeat... Spazito Nov 2012 #62

Or....Have you noticed some of these signs in his behavior! sheshe2 Nov 2012 #71

He has been known for his outbursts of anger for a long time... Spazito Nov 2012 #72

I know...That's one of the reasons he scares the heck out of me. sheshe2 Nov 2012 #74

Losing the top ranking seat is why Mcrazy is throwing the tantrum sarcasmo Nov 2012 #69

Just like I was ignorant of the "close enough to steal" Republican election strategy? Hugin Nov 2012 #54

When I read the letter, I thought about what it meant for historical purposes. Honeycombe8 Nov 2012 #45

You and I are among the very few who have read this letter. Hugin Nov 2012 #53
