19. So who gives a doo-doo what John McCain says???

Nov 2012

??? Is this an indication that he will become the new meaner-than-nails minority leader in the Senate in the 113th Congress? The new and "improved" Mitch McConnell? Since the "Godfather of all things military and intelligence" can have some semblance of credibility, since he has no committee to head and utterly no credibility left at all? Yeah, I think something is up. Mitch McConnell has been walking around with a doo-doo-eating-grin on his face. Has anyone else noticed this?
