I really want to know what McCain was up to crashing Obama's meeting with Dems..

"McCain accidentally entered Obama meeting with Senate Democrats but did not participate in the meeting -"
says Breaking News.
and
"Senator McCain reportedly enters President Obama's meeting with Senate Democrats; receives applause"


WTF was that about? No way am I buying senility.
Did he plop his ass down and eavesdrop?
Was he trying to intimidage and disrespect the President?
Was he removed?

anyone know??

He probably was there to eavesdrop, and report back any juicy details to the republicans.

He might accidentally send some top secret information to the wrong people.

That led to Obama getting all his cabinet members confirmed and the Republicans getting squat. Teabaggers were HOT!!! And, McCain has just indicated that he'd have a hard time supporting Rand Paul against Hillary Clinton.

But he has no business in the Dem caucus unless he makes a party switch!

There was confusion Wednesday after the Arizona Republican mistakenly strolled into President Obama’s meeting with Senate Democrats at the Capitol.

The room full of Democrats — who happened to be meeting in the same room where the Senate GOP usually holds their weekly policy luncheons — erupted in applause and laughter as the former Republican presidential candidate made his entrance.

As McCain, 76, walked out of the Dem-filled space, reporters pressed him as to why he stepped foot in the room.

Saying he “had to give a speech,” McCain was eyed walking away sporting a big grin.
