CNN

I voted for Obama but I for one have always liked McCain. We saw the real McCain when he gave his concession speech. If he would have stayed true to himself the election might have been closer

John McCain is a true servant of the people. He doesn't quit even though he lost his presidential bid he knows he can still be useful in the senate. What a maverick!!

Gracie, that was a scare. CNN did it on purpose. They should have been clearer in their title.

I agree on some kind of term limits for congressmen and women. This gives others a better chance to serve. However, it's awfully hard for anybody to be a public figure. You and I are posting our critiques day and night. I think it's a good thing Senator McCain doesn't go online much and he lost the election. Or else, he would have to suffer a blackberry withdraw right now.

Kim,
You may 'care less' but it's because of the service and sacrifice of people like McCain that you even have the right to express your opinion in a free country.

First thing. Hey Tavon, there's this thing called punctuation... try it.

As an AZ resident in McCain's Senate district, I will vote for him again.

Please, say it ain't so!

arizona has been humiliated by maccain so i doubt he will get re-elected !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No. No. Get out. No.

Sir, you are too old to have relevant influence over anything that affects anything besides you or your personal nurse you will undoubtedly need the next time you throw a temper tantrum and bust a hip.

Stop ordering my generation to die for your generation's mistakes and profits. We want you gone.

He can retire comfortably. So don't know what he is trying to accomplish.

Regardless of Gracie's misunderstanding, McCain should give it a rest. He has caused division within his own Party and his choice of Sarah Palin as running mate showed fatally flawed decision making processes.

Heck let em run for the senate its only gonna be a special election cause he is not going to finish out his term as senator he has done a lot of great things but now it is time for us to put away the old thinking let the younger ones come in heck we old folks have stuck to our battle lines and look where it got us new ideas new faces we are not going to be here forever lets at least put racial divides on the side and lets work to have health care for when we get old and a future for our kids or are we going to keep the same stale ideas and drive our country into the ground

Why do you have to call Gracie a name? Does it make you feel better about yourself to talk down to someone else?

The first few people to comment on Gracie not reading the article are understandable, the rest of you, utterly ridiculous. Shut up already, we get it, she didn't read the article and should have, Sheesh ENOUGH!

McCain is a moderate. I want him in the Senate. I think you people need to put the election behind you. Obama won, he and McCain have at least made the attempt to reconcile as should you.

Staunch Democrat that's tired of all the hating.

Dem's wouldn't be happy if they got hung with a new rope. You just have to complain about everything, your even complaining about Gracie who actually agrees with all your bottled up hate, though she is just a bit late. You all complain about how McCain was so vicious during the election, guess he learned how to do that by reading your posts from CNN. Take the log out of your own eye! It is time to move and stop the bitterness. This is why nothing gets done in congress.

Honestly, I'm sick of seeing geriatric senators acting like they deserve the offices that they abuse. IMPOSE TERM LIMITS FOR LEGISLATORS!

I'm a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat who voted for Obama, but please fellow Obama supporters, think before you trash McCain in his Senate run.

He has proven over the years that he can work across the aisle, and frankly, he's one of the ones that we really need in the Senate. In short, Obama needs him.

I would never vote for him in a million years, and neither would most of the other Obama supporters, but please people, give respect and credit where it's due.

Awe come on John, retire already. What's wrong? Won't Sweet Cindy let you live off her money? Or . . . are you considering running for president again. Really, John, if you were too old this time, do you think that's going to change. Go Home!

A Medal of Freedom for McCain and NAPOLITANO

Folks from Arizona would be wise to unseat McCain in 2010. I'm not Joe the plumber by the way. I'm licensed legally to do my trade. Leave it to that numnuts to support McCain-Palin.

Gracie, learn to read before posting comments. You obviously know nothing about this, so go away.

Kim,

Some of us still appreciate what he did for our country. You take your freedoms for granted, I don't. McCain is one of the all-time great senators not for his time as a POW but because of his ability to bring the parties together and get stuff done. I wish I could vote for him again.

Gracie, you are not only an idiot but you are a complete moron. Can you not see what others are saying?

Gracie, to re-iterate what the other have said. READ THE ARTICLE. HE IS RUNNING FOR SENATE RE-ELECTION. NOT PRESIDENT!

Stop quoting your idol and read the article before responding. You really are an idiot!

There should be term limits on congressmen and senators just like there is on the Presidency and governors. McCain has obviously made a career out of being a politician just like the rest of them. If there were term limits, maybe these politicians would really be in it to serve our country and not their own personal interests and wealth.

OMG... Well at least WE who live outside Arizona don't have to listen to his BS and watch his wild eyed, arm slinging tyrades.. He needs to retire but I'll bet Cindy put him up to running again so she wouldn't have to put up with him at HER home in AZ...LOL..

Shoot, that means Obama didn't ask him to be Defense Secretary. Oh well, maybe Hillary could handle Defense and State both.

Do these guys ever retire or simply serve till death???

I sure hope Joe the Plummer is around when the time comes, Oh I forgot Palin will give him a hand when the times comes. You Bet Ya!!!!

wish he'd step aside and let John Shadegg run!

If he knows what is good for him, he should retire....

I simply cannot understand why he would want to do such a stupid thing, when his wife is a Muti-Billionaire......They already have 7 or 8 houses, certainly are receiving rent from all those houses, and should be living quite well.......not to mention that he has 15 cars parked in his garages that he owns !!

I wonder which McCain will show up to be reelected. The old maverick or the new maverick.

I am a republican...the two best Senators are Kennedy and McCain. It would be a shame to lose the both of them. Stop the hate...McCain is not the devil.

Hope is a good thing,let John run and have something to do.He surely cant do anything for poor Cindy.Hey RUSS,and the other forty names you use on the blog S.T.F.U. Isnt it past your bed time loser?

Guess he thinks the third try will be his lucky charm. In the meantime thank goodness we have 4 years of Obama to fix the Bush disaster!

McCain, please retire. It is time for the younger generation to bring new ideas and stop telling stories from your POW days. This is 2008 and we could care less. We are concern about how to pay for our homes and eat That is what old people do when they don't have any new ideas, tell stories. Spend some of that money that we poor people don't have, and try to get a clue about what is going on in 2008. NO MORE MCCAIN PERIOD!

That will be amusing. It will be fun to watch him get creamed again.

Come on John, isn't 73 retirement age? Hang it up and give the younger generation a chance to screw the taxpayers as a US Senator.

please DON'T mccain.

Good Luck Mr. McCain you deserve it.

Why is it that these old politicians like to hold on to power and not give younger people? It took 7 felony convictions to finally get rid of Stephens from Alaska. I hope when I get to their ages, I could retire and rest my bones after a life of hard work instead of grasping at power and prestige at the last breath. Sad.

McCain, you have taken both the low and high road in the past and come up short. Simply retire. It's time.

Gracie,
If McCain were to run for president in 2012, it would only to be to rescue America from what Obama will put us throught in these four years to come. I hate how people like you and other liberals base their political opinions on their steriotypical beliefs and the media.

Cheney has committed a wide variety of crimes in 8 years. It is the duty of all attorneys, to hound this rotten criminal into an early grave.

Let him run if he wants to. Let him make his case. What's wrong with letting AZ vote? I thought this was a democracy?

Best of luck, John. I'll look forward to seeing what your opponent has to say, too.

McCain will likely win, unless Governor Napolitano runs. She might put up a fight. There was talk she might be the Attorney General. But those talks ended today obviously. So now she is free to run for Senate if she decides to do so.

Wow poor people in Arizona, look at the bright side, he's never going to be president of the United States..

This is the candidate who couldn't win a healthy 10 point lead in his Home State? Pathetically, McCain did about as well in Arizona as Obama did in Iowa and New Hampshire.

Good luck, John.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< im with kyle... but im scratching it and shaking it at the same time with a dumbfounded look on my face....

I agree with chuck! But he's Arizona's promblem now, not ours!!

Go write a book with Palin you are done! Give me a break!

For a liberally mined person like Gracie she is showing her closed mindedness, and negative personality, because the way you view another person, situation, place, is a clear sign of yourself!

I would, and do wish Sen. John McCain all of the best , I can and am willing to share a path to the eternities which shares the Fullness and Truth in his gospel that which others do not and will not acknowledge for the future!!!

"He Lives"

"He Lives"

Don't be so hard on Gracie for jumping to conclusions. McCain can take it, he and Palin taught a lot of people to do that with their negative campaign. I shiver at the thought of them myself.

I love John McCain No I am too Old to be his Son. He is only four years older than Me.... But This Guy??? Where do they come from?
There are so few!!!!

Who cares whether Gracie read all the way through or not?

This is NOT about Gracie. It is about McCain.

If you guys could have stuck to a topic perhaps you could have won an election.

Good for him ! He ain't no rock star like The big O. but a good man !

Gracie Gracie Gracie.. My dear Gracie.. Ohh Gracie.. Sweet sweet Gracie. My darling Gracie.. Please Please Please read before you post. Gracie as was mentioned by several people before me darling this is about the senate seat and not POTUS. Gracie next time just take just a few minutes of your precious time and read the whole 7 line article before you make your comments dear. Anyway i hope this was a lesson learned on your part Gracie just please dont let this happen again sweety. Take care now Gracie..

Though I didn't vote for him in the election, I would look foward to him keeping his seat in the Senate, he is after all, a fairly bipartisan Senator. I strongly suspect that he would work with Obama and the Democrats on pressing issues like Gitmo, the enviroment, and energy. Heck, he might even join the Dems on some other issues as well and if another Republican were to get his seat, which he'll probably face a challenge from some conservative Christian Republican, his replacement probably would not be near as bipartisan as Sen. McCain.

IS THIS THE SAME MAN THAT SOMETIMES YOU MAY OVER STAY YOUR WELCOME? YOUR WELCOME RAN OUT WHEN YOU JOKED -"BOMB, BOMB, BOMB IRAN". AGE ASIDE!!!!!!

your kidding, right? uh...

I came across a poll that has Napolitano leading over McCain in a run for the Senate. John, you'd better hope she gets picked up in Obama's cabinet, but then again you hurt your image so profoundly that a saguaro cactus could get more votes than you.

Saguaro Cactus '10

As much as I was shocked and dismayed by the dishonorable presidential campaign he ran, if he truly is the "old" John McCain, we need him in the senate. If the "old" John McCain doesn't really exist, and what we saw this time is what we get, he needs to retire.

Good for him. I wish him well.

This comment is actually regarding the Eric Holder appointment to Attorny General and Hillary Clinton's vetting for Secretary of State.

Folks.. we need to realize that Change does not mean simply change of faces in Washington. The change we are looking for is the change in policies that have dug is in a ditch over the last 8 years.

So folks.. don't get all uptight about seeing former Clinton people in Obama's Administration. These people are the best and the brightest and will serve us well. What really matters is the leadership at the top under which they all follow.

What the heck do you folks want?? A whole team of people we have never heard of?? Yeah we might get change.. but we may not get competency.. that is what matters.

The people in Arizona I'm sure will re-elect McCain in a heart beat,and should ! He's working for them and the country.I doubt if any of the people writing negative things have ever done anything for our country ,they just have an opinion.Hollow drums make the most noise.

He cannot run for re-election as president, Gracie, he hasn't been elected. Therfore, one can tell even without reading the whole story that we are talking about his senate seat. Say goodnight.

McCAIN FOR SENATE RE-ELECTION IN 2010?

I guess McCain see this as his last run. McCain would be 74-years old if he runs for Arizona Senator in 2010.

But the other issue is that Arizona is slowly turning Blue; much like Colorado, Nevada, Virgina, and North Carolina. I UNDERSTAND WHY McCAIN WANTS A TWO-YEAR RUNNING START FOR RE-ELECTION.

IT WORKED FOR OBAMA. FEW PEOPLE KNEW OBAMA 22-MONTHS AGO, BUT NOW . . .

Wul I am in AZ and I can PROMISE you I wont vote for him. He has done NOTHING for this state, no secure borders, no funding for schools, I want a senator that CARES about the state, and actually lives in it, in ONE home! He does NOT care about Az, and only being in the senate.

Mitch...I agree with you. It's the same old people that has been under one administration or another in the White House that President-elect Obama is picking for his cabinet. This is not change...this is the same ole same. Pick new, young, vivacious, educated, intelligent people to be a part of this new upcoming administration...give them a chance to prove themselves. It's okay to keep more experienced people, but give others a chance to get their feet wet and learn the ropes of being employed in a president's cabinet. ~~~ As for McCain running again in 2010, he needs to give it up and retire. There should be a limit on how long a senator can serve just like there's a limit on a president's term.

McCain will be soundly defeated. Arizona is fed up with him and his dishonesting and lying during his campaign for President. He showed his worst side during the campaign and he has never done anything for the state. The only reason he runs in AZ is it is a Republican state. So he is using Ariziona to fund his payroll from the senate.

I know this will probably not go over well but there should be an age cap on people in Congress and the Supreme Court for that matter. New ideas for a changing society is what is needed not old ideas. Times and circumstances are changing and people who are making laws and shaping policy for this country need to be in the here and now looking forward. That being said, I hope it is the McCain of 2000 that will be running and not the angry, divisive person we saw in the Presidential election.

Independent.. you don't need to read past the headline to realize he's running for senate (re-election) DUH!

The people of Arizona have a choice: return McCain to the Senate or let him to retire (by voting him out).

My preference would be to see him ride off into the sunset.

It's all good. He's the only worthy republican!!!!!!!!!!! I'd vote for him among all of them. I hope he returns to his old self, and be a champion for immigration reform again!!!!!!!!! Since his speech the night that Obama won I think he started coming back to the man he was.

Obama 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Latinos por Obama!!!!!

What petty charges compared to the war crimes this jerk could be tried for! And to think that Halliburton is still raping our government in Iraq makes me want to spew! Cheney is the most disgusting sleaze-bag in Bush's cabinet thus far, and G.W. has had his share of non-functioning units. I hope this piece of work (who smirks out one side of his mouth constantly) gets what he deserves! I cannot stomach this guy, yet he was just obvious to get into G.W. administration. Let's see....an oil President and an oil Vice President certainly made sense to those lemming voting for EIGHT YEARS for these morons! Thank God the voters in 2008 came to their senses!

In Gracie's defense the headline did make you blink hard for a second. But on the flip side, reading is fundamental.

If McCain gets over the hate he contributed to on the campaign trail he should run for re-election. If he's going to continue the negative color and religious baiting he silently approved for just a little too long he needs to move on for a new generation of Americans.

Not to mention the fact that he CAN'T run for re-election to the presidency in 2012, he wasn't elected in 2008!!! So even just reading the title of the article should have told you what the contents were about!

If McCain needs to retire ... how about Ted Kennedy? He's been around way longer and who needs him?

Why shouldn't he run for re-election? He fought hard for this country and unfortunately came after a very unpopular pres. Actually, McCain is the one who shoudl have won the presidency 8 yrs ago!

Wow, you Obama nuts really are either mentally sick or just plain mean. Enjoy the next four years Camelot with King Obama.

I guess it doesn't really matter whether you like McCain or not. If you don't live in Arizona, your opinion is irrelevant. As a senator, his responsibiltiy is to his constituents in Arizona. If they think he's doing a good job representing them in the United States Senate, then he should be reelected. This is why I oppose term limits – the term limit is the will of the people. If you don't produce, you don't get rehired. Simple as that.

Why?

this should bring up the stock on Geritol, Depends, Valium and Ripple.

McCain will prbably be a long shot for re-election in 2010 unless he runs and acts like an Independant. He has two years to prove that he will finally put his Country first.

I think he needs to be in the Senate – he at least has a handle of what needs to be done – Just didn't want him in the "Drivers" seat & especially with Palin being the "back seat driver"!! Thats over and done now so.......

McCain is alright with me in the Senate!! (.)

I am wondering how McCain didn't learn from his losing experience. I hope the people of Arizona would send a smarter person to the Senate.

John...you are an American Vietnam hero...go home, be Cindy's trophy husband and let the new kids on the block get America back on its feet. The senate will be better off with new blood and you'll be fine living in luxury. If you're bored, you can have affairs...you were good at it once.

I think the people in AZ know him and his sleazy stuff well enough now to not EVER put him in the Senate again. Find a really DECENT democrat to take his place.

McCain lost his honor 1st when he made propaganda tapes for the enemy, and 2nd when he and his ditz running mate lied at every hate-fest they ran in the campaign.

NO MORE

GO MCCAIN/PALIN 2012
after america open its eyes widely and sees how much a disaster the nobama/biden/clinton administration ends up being

McCain should make a move all right – back to the beer palace in Arizona.
He was too old this year to be President.
He'll be too old in 2010 to be Senator.

Away to go John! We are never too Old, when we love our Country.
I only had an Idiot Playing King, in my childhood.... Your My Hero! No Place for King's... Only people like you.... My Mentor!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hopefully, the people of Arizona will seek change in their next Senator. It is time for Senator McCain to enjoy a well-deserved retirement.

McCain can run for re-election to the Senate but he won't win. McCain is only trying to setup one of his sons to take his place eventually and Arizona isn't going to re-elect him or one of his sons.

Gracie,

I voted for Barack, but get off your high horse. Senator McCain has NOTHING to be ashamed of, he won 47% of the vote. That's a lot of Americans who Barack will need to support him in the future. We're all Americans and there are no blue and red states. Didn't you listen to Obama.

Don't feed a fire that's not there.

I'd rather him run for Senate than for President!!! I say good for him. He could keep things interesting (or at least entertaining).

I think McCain should finish his senate seat and then retire from politics and enjoy his wife, all his homes and with the wealth he has accumulated go travel and enjoy life.

(CHUCK ) why dont you get ---. Your just another hater. MCain has more life in him than some of you young morons. Obama needs MCain's input. Obama hires all these clinton staff because he knows they got the know how and he dosn't know jack ---. He has a great talk but cant do the walk.

If his ads for re-election are half as negative as his Presidential campaign, I'm not voting for him...I like him, but I'm sick of being mislead. It is an insult that in the Age of Google, Politicians try to bend the truth to their will and think they can get away with it!

Barack wants to work with the Senator and the Senator wants to work with Barack. Gracie take a chill pill, and I voted for Barack.

The election is OVER, be decent.

Personally I think it's time for new blood! I'm from Arizona, have family in AZ. and nobody I know wants to vote for him any longer!

Does this mean we will see Joe the unlicensed plumber again?

The title of this article is poorly worded so that unless you read it in detail, you almost make the same mistake Gracie did in thinking he's running for POTUS in 2012. I almost made the same mistake.

Since he lost to my guy, I wish him no ill will! He deserves to be forgiven just like Lieberman. I still want Lieberman stripped of his powers though.

people like him, palin adn clintons need to move and make room for our youth, and new generation..

these folks are too old, and so out of touch with what is going on now, that this is why we are falling behind.. the rest of the world,

the turn for our youth to start re ogranizing and rebuiding this country has come
soooo

get lost mccain, bush, palin, clinton and the rest of the old crew...

if they were honest and coudl provide advise it would be different, but these folks are just so corrupt and so out of date, they all need to move to AZ and have a comune..
the clintons included..

we need new people, new generation, all diverse, all paths of life, races, gender, religion instead of same old same old..

go away mccain..

Why did he wait until now to announce this? Do you think he was holding out for a possible position in Obama's administration? As a STRONG Obama supporter, I actually thought that would have been a good idea.

If Arizona re-elects old fool McCain
it'll be a crying shame...
He hasn't learned to campaign nice
the voters won't have to think twice!
They'll elect someone younger, smarter
McCain was around when they signed the Magna Carter!
With President Obama we have HOPE
Send that Navy man away on a boat!

Typical comment from an Obama supporter! Does anyone notice that Obama supporters tend to misspell, are not articulate, and are totally ignorant? They are drunk off the kool aid. My favorite were the attacks on Clinton supporters, contending they are racist. On the other hand, 94% of African Americans voted for Obama. Yes, my friends, voting for someone because of race is racism too.

With any luck, AZ will elect a democrat in 2010. McCain is a moral and ethical wasteland, imo.

It's time GRANDPA McCAIN GRABB some NAPPIES and head off on RETIREMENT.

Maybe Sarah Palin will move to Arizona to challenge him for his seat. She's so popular she could beat him in his home state.

The article is only seven lines long, and the only reason it's seven lines instead of three lines is because each line is truncated by the picture of John McCain. I do not understand why someone would not be able and willing to read all lines before posting.

McCain is needed in the Senate. I say go for it! As a life long Democrat, he's the only Republican that I would ever vote for. An honroble man running for President caught up in the wrong place at the wrong time (at least for being a Republican).

Leave Gracie alone.

Wasn't this election enough punishment for him? At least he won't be burdened by that Failin creature. She caused a lot of damage to his campaign (And she still won't go away) to say the least.

Maybe he's a glutton for humiliation and punishment...Who knows! Good news fr the Dems.

Senior John McCain, has about as much of a chance to run in Alaska. He will lose his seat. To an unknown African American or a Single White femle Senator John McCain day'sare over....

Lots of people love him here; I'd like to see someone good run against him, but I doubt they'd have much of a chance.

Our system is almost as ignorant and corrupt as Alaska's.

Old dog can't learn new tricks....

If Arizonians don't realize that it is time for a change then who cares!

It will all depend on how bi-partisan he becomes in the next year... If he backs Obama's agenda ... he might fair alright.

I think they mean running for ARizona Senator seat not Presidential. If Im wrong, then ..........Oh Boy!

McCain has served the people of Arizona well during his four terms. I think you'll see him drift away from the right wing sooner rather than later. He had little use or respect for them before he decided to run for president and particularly didn't like the evangelicals. He can hopefully go back to being the maverick that he was in 2000. He had to compromise his positions to placate the right wing to get the nomination and in the process he alienated the moderates and independents that were HIS base.

HA! HA!! HA! Why? Judgement deficiency. Retire now I have some peace while it is possible.

Good for him. He should continue his work in the Senate. I'm wondering if Gracie here actually read the article, or simply the headline.

*walks out the room shaking my head*

Another mentally vacuous ideologue. Gracie, this article refers to Sen. McCain's 2010 *Senate* campaign–not a 2012 presidential run. It's always good to read the article before offering inane comments.

retire, we need new people in government. so, far, barack is the only new guy in washington. his cabinet picks are same old same old. waiting for the change.........

Gracie, I believe it's RE-election for his senate seat.

Gracie – The article say McCain is seeking re-election for his Senate seat in 2010, not the presidential election in 2012. Just to clarify!

Go Obama!!!!

Gracie,

You are an idiot!!!! His Political ACtion Committee is for re-election for the Senate seat he hold for Arizona. Next time before you post a comment, do us all a favor and do your research and homework.

Give me a break. This man needs to go have fun living in his 7 0 9 homes and driving his 13 cars. He also needs to help his wife spend some of that money that they make. Live on that flower bed of ease Senator. Drive off into the sunset. Why don'tcha. YOU BETCHA!

Gracie, hon, read the story......not for POTUS but for Senator again in 2010. and take a Prozac while your at it

Gracie.....he is not running for president...he is running for senate for arizona

Gracie: Did you read anything past the title? It is talking about re-election to the Senate in 2010 and does not mention anything in the year 2012.

He should just retire and enjoy the millions he sold his soul for.

Oh, puh-leez ... Senator McCain, you've done your bit in Washington. Hang it up and make room for the next generation of leaders.

Good luck, McSame.... sad, but true... no more maverick in the old dude!

Oh my.

RETIRE ALREADY!

UGGGGGGGGG!

don't worry, he'll be granted an amunity

Poor man. He doesn't get it.

Dear Lord, say it isn't so. John McCain is setting himself up for another good spanking in 2012. His Aides should know BETTER by now. What is this old man thinking?? Has he NOT learned his lesson yet?

NO WAY, NO HOW, NO McCAIN!!!

NO WAY, NO HOW, NO McCAIN!!!

NO WAY, NO HOW, NO McCAIN!!!

NO WAY, NO HOW, NO McCAIN!!!

NO WAY, NO HOW, NO McCAIN!!!

NO WAY, NO HOW, NO McCAIN!!!

NO WAY, NO HOW, NO McCAIN!!!

Does he not want to be stuck at home with Cindy or something? He needs to retire already and enjoy the rest of his life.

Oh, don't scare me CNN, I thought you meant he was going to run again for the presidency. Whew.
