McCain is FDT’s friend. Don’t count on seeing them attack each other any time soon.
Fred pointed out that he disagreed with McCain’s Amnesty bill.
He is clearly ready to fight the good fight against whoever he has to.
McCain is FDT's friend under normal circumstances in normal times, but they're playing in the political major leagues now and it's every man for himself. Friendship drops way down on the list of important things during a major league campaign, and friends are free to verbally tear each other apart on the stump and then resume the friendly relationship once the game is over.
Once this current game is over and a winner has been selected, you may be surprised by how congenial the relationships between all the candidates may be.
