McCain's John Lewis Flip-Flop

Remember when John McCain said that one of the three "wisest people" he would "rely heavily on" in his administration was Democratic Congressman and civil rights legend John Lewis?

That seems unlikely nowadays, given that Lewis is accusing McCain of "sowing the seeds of hatred and division" a la George Wallace, and McCain is charging Lewis with "a brazen and baseless attack on my character." It's going to be awkward when they cross paths in the Capitol cafeteria...

* Headline changed for clarity.






Comments

Why is the header "John Lewis Flip Flop"? Lewis made his comments and has not changed them. If anything, it should say McCain flip flop. This is egregiously misleading and dismaying that it's on the Mother Jones site. Or have I missed somthing?
