When the death of Sen. Ted Kennedy created a vacant Senate seat in Massachusetts, McCain went so far as to solicit former Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling to run for the seat.

John McCain.....Sir, you had your 15 minutes give or take a couple months of fame.......It is time to step aside and get out of the way. Taking advice from you would be like the Democrats taking the advice of
Dukakis..........Did the Lib's and your friend Joey put you up to this ...........We need to re-organize for 2012.......and we need a clean slate..........
Arizona is real nice this time of year.......Thanks for
your time.
