Which GOP Senators are likely to become Blue Dog Democrats?

[Heisenberg]

Only Collins I can see switching (not that she's even conservative on too many issues). Anyway, this trolling about party switching needs to stop.

None realistically, but if I had to choose one, McCain. Probably doesn't have to worry about getting re-elected, has been personally attacked by the President-elect, and was a past target for a switch.

I think McCain will become a Blue Dog Democrat in his final term.

Why do you really think that. He is Republican. Period. And he's WAY closer to McConnell than he is to Schumer, and he is a former nominee.

Even though he is closer to McConnell, McConnell supports Trump. McCain did consider switching in 2001 despite being closer to McConnell.

That was FIFTEEN years ago. He is a Republican. He would never vote for Bernie Sanders to chair the Budget Committee.
