WASHINGTON (AP) – Sen. John McCain has cast a crucial vote in the Republican drive to repeal « Obamacare. » But he also had a scolding message. In a speech to his Senate colleagues, McCain condemned the tribal politics gripping the nation.
Confronting an aggressive brain cancer, the 80-year-old Arizonan served notice he would not vote for the GOP legislation as it stands now. McCain said his fellow lawmakers « should stop listening to the bombastic loudmouths on the radio, television and the internet. » He said « They don’t want anything done for the public good. »
Even though he voted for debate to proceed, McCain said he would not vote for this bill « as it is today. »
