Senator John McCain has choice words for Dodgers

The Los Angeles Dodgers clinched the National League West Thursday with a come-from-behind 7-6 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks.

They also touched a bit of a nerve with some Diamondbacks fans when their celebration spilled over into the pool in right-center field at Chase Field.

Possibly the world’s most famous D-backs fan, U.S. Senator John McCain, was one that had a nerve touched, and he took to Twitter to let his 1.8 million followers know about it, along with a link to our own Dan Bickley’s column on the subject.

No-class act by a bunch of overpaid, immature, arrogant, spoiled brats! “The #Dodgers are idiots” http://t.co/KfZZliBFBV

Of course, it didn’t take long for reaction to the Senator’s tweet. One who chimed in was Dodgers’ reliever Brian Wilson.

Senator McComplain knows a thing or two about coming in second and watching someone take a plunge in the pool (I mean poll) #POoLITICS
