The Democrats circle the wagons around their tax cheats, rapists, and adulterers. It becomes a "badge of honor" to stay in office under a cloud. The GOP cleans its own house.
"The Legislative District 26 Republican Party in Arizona has passed a formal rebuke of Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) for abdicating GOP principles in helping Senate Majority Leader Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV) secure votes to approve several of President Barack Obama’s controversial nominees. “Senator John McCain unilaterally negotiated with the Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to secure Republican votes necessary to pass a number of controversial Presidential nominees,” the resolution, which passed the official GOP body in the state by a 24-13 vote with four abstentions on Tuesday evening, reads."

Oh, since when???
Sheesh, I don't think I've ever seen the Dems give standing ovations to people like Weiner and Jon Edwards.

When Sen. David Vitter, R-La., showed up in Washington, D.C., again last week after hiding with the equivalent of a paper bag on his head, he was welcomed back to a closed Republican Senate luncheon with a loud standing ovation.
Vitter had fled after admitting that he was included on a private telephone list of johns made public by the so-called "Washington madam," Deborah Jean Palfrey, whom law enforcement officials accuse of running a prostitution ring. Vitter didn't publicly deny anything, saying only that he had sinned and was sorry. He is refusing to discuss the subject further. Hmm.
I'd rather vote for my senator than let the idiots in the state legislature do it.

If you are elected on a party's platform and accept their money to get elected, you better damn well abide by its ideals. If not, he could have run as an independent and let J.D Hayworth carry the torch for the GOP.
No party walks lock step on every issue. Is it your contention that the Dem's against expanding the war into Syria need to vote for it anyway?
McCain is a neocon and he almost lost his senate seat until he "conveniently" went back to the GOP camp... he is going to get kicked out of office... its a guarantee... time to clean house... ironically, the liberals are siding with him "conveniently"...
My guess is he's being blackmailed and bribed into taking the political positions since the early 2000's
