Today, Elisabeth Bumiller of the New York Times asked John McCain whether he had been in a private conversation in 2004 with John Kerry about running as Kerry’s VP candidate, and whether he would now return the favor and ask Kerry to run with him.
Obviosuly angered, McCain snapped back.
Bumiller, whose paper has already been blistered for publishing a highly speculative article hinting that McCain may have had an affair with a lobbyist, persisted.
McCain fired back again.
Some other reporters described McCain as ‘testy’ with Bumiller. Frankly I think its refreshing to see a candidate not be PC with a generally anti-conservative MSM, and particularly with the sleeze-bags at the NYT.

Everyone knows I had a private conversation with kerry. You know it too! John Kerry asked if I would consider being his running mate… and I catagorically said no.

McCain fired back again.
John Kerry is a friend of mine. We are fellow veterans, but we have vastly different philosophical fundamental views. I respect those views, I just totally disagree with them.
