McCain and Obama: Frenemies? #
January 8th, 2008 | In Worth Considering
I found this odd. Slate’s Jacob Weinberg had this to say about the relationship between the two men (emphasis mine):
But don’t assume that the common qualities or shared goals of McCain and Obama would result in a civil contest. In early 2006, McCain denounced Obama in an unusually nasty letter for a perceived betrayal on the lobbying reform bill. Obama responded (in a joking context, but still) that his goal was to learn how to be as much of a prima donna as McCain. The front-runners are enough alike to dislike each other intensely.
While David Brooks said this:
John McCain has cordial relations with Obama…
Someone’s lying, but who?
