Met John McCain once. I was a 22 year old senate intern waiting for an elevator. The doors opened, and he and another GOP senator were inside. I apologized and said I'd want for the next one, but McCain told me to hop on. 1/3
"Who do you work for," he asked. "Ted Kennedy, sir." "He's a good man," McCain said. "Without him, we're lost." 2/3
The other Senator scoffed in disgust and got off the elevator at the next floor. While he was still in earshot, McCain raised his voice a little and said, "Don't mind him. He's an asshole." And that's the time I met John McCain.

Hill staffers call him

Id say of all the GOP Senators he would be the last option.
