John McCain Diagnosed With Brain Cancer

[GLOCKMAN23C]

I would not wish cancer on anyone. May he rest in peace.

Good riddance.

To steal a quote from Richard Stallman, I'm not glad he's dead, but I'm glad hes gone.

Prayers and thoughts to His family.

The Man stayed in office TOO LONG. Beyond that I will not Pizz on His Grave..Bill.

 

[Libertarian01]

Rest in Peace.

Like him or not... He served his country, shot down, and continued to serve his country.
RIP JM.

Hes where he cant hurt the country anymore and it was natural and not malicious. Couldnt hope for a better outcome

John requested that both Obama and Bush deliver eulogies at his funeral.

The Songbird has sung his last tune! I'll leave it at that.

Yep, he can do us no more harm.

We thank him for his service.

Yep. Much like many music artists, I appreciate his early work, but not so much his later catalog. I am glad this human is no longer suffering. Godspeed, sir.

What happens with his Senate seat now?
A special election I presume.

I would imagine that would take longer to facilitate the special election than time left before the mid-terms.

RIP and prayers for his family and friends.

AZ Gov picks his replacement, election in 2020 to see who fill the rest of his term. If he had left office on or before may 30 there would have been an election this year.

Who could be appointed to John McCain's Senate seat?

How quickly can they seat a replacement? Would be nice to confirm Kavanaugh

 

[jamil]

His service covers a multitude of sins. I’ll try not to judge if he broke even. Maybe he should have switched parties.

I saw this on the news just hours after posting the question.
Would love to see his replacement seated in time for Kavanaugh's confirmation hearings.

 

[hoosierdoc]

It should be quick. Governor just picks someone and they are sworn in.

probably talked with McCain about it actually. Crossing my fingers they don’t pick his wife or other family

 

[spec4]

Don't understand why he didn't resign last year. That aside, I'm glad he is out of the Senate. I never bought the "reach across the aisle" stuff.

History will judge how he is remembered. I predict favorably.
