Before we get too busy giving McCain a medal, lets all be reminded that he and Pence were locked in negotiations for quite some time before he cast his vote. McConnell was also confident he had the votes to get this back to the House, and that Pence was going to cast the tie breaker to make that happen. The look on McConnell and McCain's faces said it all. I don't think there was some master plan to this than McCain or anyone else cooked up.
