Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) concedes that Republican senators won't be able to stop Democratic health care reform legislation from passing the Senate before Christmas.
"We will fight until the last vote," McCain told "Fox News Sunday" host Chris Wallace. "We owe that to our constituents, because we must do everything - we must look back and say we did everything to prevent this terrible mistake from taking place."
Democrats recently reached a deal with hold out members of their own caucus to cobble together the 60 votes necessary to pass the bill - and McCain, in response to a Wallace question, said there's "probably not" anything the GOP can do to block the bill. "But what we can do is continue winning the battle of American public opinion."
