Even John McCain has to learn that if you give them an inch they'll take a mile

Regardless of how much you prostitute yourself for these people it's never going to be enough to allow even the smallest deviation from the program:
The Arizona Republican Party formally censured Sen. John McCain on Saturday, citing a voting record they say is insufficiently conservative.
The resolution to censure McCain was approved by a voice-vote during a meeting of state committee members in Tempe, state party spokesman Tim Sifert said. It needed signatures from at least 20 percent of state committee members to reach the floor for debate.
Sifert said no further action was expected.
They must be a lovely bunch.
McCain is extremely conservative by normal standards. And he has become far more conservative the longer he's been in office. But the party folk in Arizona are far-right reactionaries and they want one of their own. McCain's too old school for them.
