People always ponder who would replace John McCain when he finally succumbs to brain cancer (and no I’m not wish him suffer or die.) I guess now we know. It will be none other than his wife, Cindy McCain who will be appointed to replace John McCain whenever the day does come and John McCain passes away. If and when Cindy McCain takes over her husband’s Senate seat, I can’t imagine she’d be all that different than him. The female McCain will likely be just as progressive liberal as John McCain with a phony (R) by her name. At the very least if Cindy McCain holds on to the seat for a couple of years, or even a decade, that would probably make it impossible for Meghan McCain to ever get the seat.
| Cindy McCain to succeed husband in Senate |

As Arizonans prepare for their final salute to Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., Republicans and political pundits in the state privately tell Newsmax they expect the appointment of his wife, Cindy, to succeed him in the Senate.
Of course, no one in the Grand Canyon State who spoke to us wants to go on record discussing what will happen when the ailing McCain no longer holds his seat. But those who did, agree almost unanimously, Cindy McCain following John in the Senate through appointment by Gov. Doug Ducey, R-Ariz., is a near certainty.
“I’ve always assumed that was the arrangement,” said a friend of the McCain family since John’s 1973 return from captivity in Vietnam.
A former Republican senator who served with McCain agreed:
“I don’t know if this [succession] has been formalized, but that’s what people who know John tell me.”
(Both of those who spoke to Newsmax did so under promise of anonymity).
One source close to the McCain family said supporters of the senator have quietly let Gov. Ducey know Cindy is the choice of “Team McCain.”
Others mentioned for appointment include: Ducey’s top aide Kirk Adams, a former speaker of the state House of Representatives; and Karrin Taylor Robson, multi-millionaire businesswoman and member of the State Board of Regents.
