CBS News anchor Katie Couric interviewed former White House press secretary Scott McClellan about his explosive new book - and the criticism it is stirring. What follows is a partial transcript of the interview.

Couric: Do you support John McCain?

McClellan: I haven't made a decision yet. I have a lot of respect and admiration for Sen. McCain. He is certainly someone who has governed from the center, and that's where I come from; I am pretty much a centrist who believes in working together to solve problems and get things done and putting the country ahead of partisan politics. I also am intrigued by Sen. Obama's message (smiles). It's a message that is very similar to the one Gov. Bush ran on in 2000, and won on, promising to bring bi-partisanship and honesty and integrity to Washington.

Couric: So you could see yourself actually voting for Barack Obama?

McClellan: I just said I haven't made a decision, but I do think, you know, McCain talked about ending the permanent campaign recently, Sen. Obama talks about changing the way Washington works. They better have a specific plan for doing that if they're gonna actually be the president of the United States, because it is difficult to do.

He probably is jealous of Larry Sinclair's soiree with B. Hussein

“I really have no core values....I am for sale to the highest bidder”

The suckup wants a job at one of Murdoch’s papers, apparently.

[library user]

I thought he said he likes centrists. McCain is not one and Obama sure as hell is not either. WTF?

[unkus]

Scott, you are now what is called a “Useful idiot”.

[pissant]

Mccain is closer to the center than Obama, that is for sure. Obama is to the left of even socialist Bernie Sanders.

“The suckup wants a job at one of Murdoch’s papers, apparently.”

Or just about anything George Soros has to offer.

[freekitty]

Angling for a job I suspect.

[PLMerite]

Is Scott McClellan getting ready to have a David Brock moment?

[JRandomFreeper]

I think he only qualifies for 50% of the job description of "Useful Idiot".

[Cinnamon Girl]

Scott McClownan is intrigued by paper clips.

[pissant]

Prancing out of the closet will be next, I reckon

[papagall]

The treachery reminds me of another Scott who whored himself for money ... ritter or not?

[dragonblustar]

Wormtail would do and say anything to keep his book sales up.

[river rat]

Does his “leg” tingle at the mere mention of Obama’s name?

[Izzy Dunne]

He is certainly someone who has governed from the center,

Just exactly what has McCain "governed" ???

NOTE: McCain is a Senator.

McClellan: I'm "Intrigued" By Obama

Wasn't Larry Sinclair supposed to have been intrigued by Obama? Do we have another David Brock situation here?

[Joe 6-pack]

At least Scotty boy has lived up to his last name. He's not the first McClellan to be canned by a POTUS for being an ineffective, spineless POS...

[vpintheak]

Didn’t anyone in the Bush administration verify this turds credentials before giving him the job? A “centrist” is another term for a weak-kneed sissy.
