These are strong words that Senator McCain is using for the lack of bi-partisanship from President Obama. As I see it, based on what I have read, the republicans did not want to contribute to the stimulus talks. I see no reason to require bi-partisanship on behalf of the republican party, since they are the ones that put us in this position to begin with. I think Senator McCain needs to get over the fact that he lost the election, and posture himself to support HIS President..President Obama.
