I would think the GOP base would celebrate a man selling his principles to the highest bidder.

I would consider him to be more of a Strom Thurmond Republican.

I would consider him to be more of a Strong Thurmond Republican.
That was a reference to McCain's former immigration policy.  And if that's a jab at racism, real or perceived in his past, he's still nowhere near Strom Thurmond levels.

Well, it's not like he was going anywhere in the race anyway.
