Why? It was Obama's idea. He brought the idea forward to the Senate Federal Financial Management Subcommittee and proposed the bill. Senator Coburn is the chair of that subcommittee, and he agreed to co-author the bill. Senator McCain was initially very upset at not having been included on the bill, because he was trying to make this his issue in the campaign. He was invited on as a co-sponsor as well.

"Mr. Coburn, sir? Would you mind helping me pass my first bill?"

Your reasons given are hardly the reasons he used a co-sponsor. Rather, the real reasons are the same reason everyone uses co-sponsors (very little legislation is sponsored by just one Senator). McCain-Kennedy and McCain-Feingold weren't paired up because the proponents "lacked credibility and experience." Do people even look stuff up anymore, or do they just go off of what the media tells them? |

I don't really care if it was his 1st or his 40th, the man is totally underqualified.

And round we go. We have an issue, Tex makes a false statement about that issue, he gets called on it, then goes to a different broader issue also without any substance. Well played. Again.
