Kinda reminds you of that guy who thinks he has a bunch of buddies with him who walks up to a real tough guy and says "you wanta fight me buddy" only to turn around and see they all went the other way.
McCain has embarrassed himself and the nation and should resign if not just pass on.[/QUOTE
I think ALL the Republicans have gotten the word that being the party of "No" isn't the way to go if they want to survive the next election. They all seem to be backing off their pledge to not raise taxes under any circumstance. They just needed President Obama to interpret the writing on the wall for them.

We'll see. Certainly a lot of the leadership is making conciliatory noises, but out there in Limbaughloonyland, there is no sign of change.
Nor SCOTA Justice Scalia (a conservative, Reagan appointee, 76, born in 1936) who'll likely not live long enough to see Obama not nominate his replacement.It saddens me that so many PJ cons won't live long enough to see another Republican in the WH. (Well, ok, it doesn't make me all that sad.)
The old f--t was beating the drums and tooting the horns to derail any nomination of Ms Rice until he looked back for his "followers" and discovered they were on the other side of the hill conferring with Obama!

I loved that, too. He clearly exposed their false bravado and backed them down. It elicited the desired effect. PJ cons are calling them "cowards" now.
