Credit where it's due.
A more honorable John McCain, the man we knew some years ago, made an appearance today. He's known to work the phone constantly, talking to friends from his many years in politics. No doubt some have told him that he'd better tamp down some of the rabid hatred he's fomenting before his legacy turns to pure 100% poop.
This clip is aptly named: "McCain Tries to Tame Flames He Earlier Fanned."
Eli Sanders of Slog puts it well:
The key for Republicans, for many many years, has been to keep these sorts of conservatives out of sight—or at least keep them quiet when cameras are around. Now that they know they’re McCain’s only hope, they won’t be silenced.
