Maverick, Maverick, Maverick
OXFORD—A succinct blog post, but I'm pretty sure John McCain just managed to fit the word "maverick" four times in a single sentence. Impressive. You know what type of person takes such superfluous freedom with the English language? A maverick type of person, that's who.

And he never once looked him in the face or called him by name. That feels creepy to me.
