I’m pretty sure His Maverickness John McCain doesn’t read my blog.  I don’t much mind.  Still, that means today I get to talk to myself because I’m writing to suggest a few small things to him.

RedState reports that several Republican Senators may be ready to cave and support Disastercare.  Since a number of RINOs are retiring this year and have nothing to lose, like Senator “Errrr Errrr” Voinivich, this doesn’t strike me as anything but typically and sadly obvious.

McCain should do something original and show some leadership to stop it.  Yes, I’m serious.

Why should he bother to care about those conservatives he tried to use as stepping stones to the Presidency?  I suspect he knows he’s pretty much lost a fair amount of our support and he can’t stand us anyway.  The question though is:  “Has he lost it all?”  That and my suggestion that we all take it out on McCain’s career in 2010 if the GOP bungles this true to their usual form.

We can’t touch McCain’s retiring RINO friends or stop their gloating on camera, but we can repudiate them by removing him from office.  The more any of his fellow RINOs pokes us, the more people are going to become amiable to venting their frustrations on at least one of them.  Certainly someone with far to fall if he loses in 2010 like the Republican Party leader.

Sound unfair to do this to him?  Cry me a river.  The future of the country is at stake, and so far he’s been a big part of the problem.

If he has the time, McCain should imagine the day when one of his staffers gives him the news that he’s been mavericked out of a job, and Snowe’s vote on this one bill was the reason why.  It could be very real, very soon.  Then he can imagine the leftist blogosphere gloating at the Republican leader’s defeat while the conservative side cheers over the fact he’s finally gone.  It may well be our only point of agreement.

Possibly, this has even started already.  My fellow conservatives come up with plenty of ideas without me, like those Tea Party things.  They’ll get plenty more from the frustration and rage caused by this impending latest betrayal.

Any Republicans supporting Disastercare is an epic mistake for which McCain could well pay with his career.  If he does, he’ll have the dubious distinction of being the only party leader in my lifetime to lose office in the middle of their tenure following a Presidential defeat.  It would ensure his proper place in American political history.

Or, he can just ignore it and hope his usual pretenses to conservatism and short memories win the day for him.  I’m sure a lot of his fellow RINOs did that in 2006 and 2008, and it ended so well for them.  Never mind me then.
