I think malcontent works pretty well in McCain's case.

Frist: You and Hagel really are cowboys.

McCain: What's your problem, Frist?

Frist: You're everyone's problem. That's because every time you go out on the floor, you're disloyal. I don't like you because you're dangerous.

McCain: That's right! Doc...man. I am dangerous.
