To have brought someone on board or associated yourself with someone whose embarrassing behavior makes you look bad and brings your character/judgement into question. Ultimately the choice to include this person leads ridicule and failure. This is in reference to McCain bringing on Sarah Palin as a running mate in the 2008 elections.
Person 1: Last week I brought my friend along with me to hang out with the cool guy I just met. She acted so annoying and he never called me back.
Person 2: Man, you totally pulled a McCain.

Get the Pulled A McCainmug. To always talk about getting together with local friends when you are in town, and then once you are in town you don't call them or give them advance notice, but post pictures of your local visit on social media
I remember discussing with Josh that we'd get together with the kids when he was in town, but he pulled a Kolchins and came and went without any notice he was around

“He totally pulled a John last night... he said he was coming at 7:00 but at 6:50 he texted me saying his mom is making him take his dogs to the vet... he doesn’t have a dog”
“He’s totally pulling a John tonight... he said he has to watch his little sister so he can’t come!!”

Get the pulled a prigozhinmug. A fat slob who is offensive, really funny and sadly trapped in the closet. He pretends to be into chicks but he would rather be a complete knob gobblin. In other words he is a real life adult version of the South Park character, Eric Cartman.
Our friend Scott is so funny and a slob like Belushi from Animal House. It is a shame that he would rather hide who he is and not come out of the closet. He is totally 'pulling a Cartman'.

Get the Pulling a Ranjanimug. (verb) to purposefully avoid responsibilities despite knowing the burden it will have on colleagues or friends.
Hey John, are you coming into work today?
Nah. I'm gonna pull a Gabe and let someone else do it.
It's no wonder that you'll never get that promotion.
