CNN's John King asked Sen. John McCain if he had any advice for the incoming Congressional freshmen. Even after all the angry unhinged tirades we've seen from McCain on the Senate floor this year, they can't stop treating him like he's some kind of elder statesman instead of someone who's been scaring the hell out of his colleagues lately instead.

Of course like the rest of them, McCain mentioned cuts to entitlement spending. Heaven forbid he and Cindy might not be able to afford to keep all of their mansions if they were asked to pay more in taxes. Shared sacrifice don't ya' know... as long as it's the underclass that's sharing it.

McCain also said they'd better be ready to give into the demands of the teabaggers or possibly face primaries, something he'd know all about. We can't expect them to let down those Koch brothers, even though the majority of the public wants them to raise taxes on the rich and cut defense spending.
