John McCain: 'I'm the Same Person' (McMaverick defends Obama, sucks up to Palin, pushes Big Tent)
ABC News ^ | 2010-10-18

...as McCain again said he supported his former running mate former Alaskan governor Sarah Palin.

"I haven't seen anyone since Ronald Reagan that with certain individuals and large groups of individuals who really have this passionate belief and support for her," he said, "It's really a remarkable thing to observe."

(snip)

"I couldn't be more proud of the campaign she waged," he said. "I couldn't be more proud of her or her performance and her continued performance. So, I think, you begin to think about legacy and I think that Sarah Palin will play a very big role in the American political scene for a very long time."

(snip)

Advocating for a big tent that includes far right conservatives, McCain said, "I work with the tea partiers in Arizona and I'm the one that fought against earmarks since it wasn't popular to do so....I think we have to recognize that there are different parts of our country and political flavor ... to be an inclusive party, we have to also have members who may not agree on every issue."

He added, "There is a movement across this country of anger and frustration with Washington, with the economy, with spending that has got to be reflected in the Congress," he said.

(snip)

Despite his seeming resentment towards Obama's policies, McCain said he harbored no ill feelings towards the president himself.

"I'm the most fortunate man in America and for me to look back in anger at the wonderful life and experience that I've had would be foolish," he said. "[Obama] won fair and square. ... I accept the verdict of the American people and it's been a great honor for me to have served."

I’m sure he will be eager to “reach across the aisle” to work with the Democrats.

Go away and DIE NOW, idiot!

McCain should have owned his error and blamed himself for throwing the election.

But, like the coward and the traitor that he is, he hasn’t and he won’t.

“[Obama] won fair and square”

Yeah the walking barely animated Corpse helped him big time and admonished real American people who questioned Obamas Patriotism and everything else about that communist..

I imagine Johnny’s “Seal the Border” rant is history now that the primaries are over. I haven’t seen a McCain ad or yard sign anywhere.

I try to forget that he will be around for 6 more years.

Maybe he will cross the aisle and work with republicans for awhile. *not*
