Yet in recent months, an alignment on high-profile domestic issues not to mention an eye on their respective legacies has transformed Obama and McCain into Washingtons most unexpected odd couple. The Arizona senator is a regular visitor to the West Wing and in near-daily contact with senior White House officials.
McCain, in an Associated Press interview, said that he and Obama "trust each other."
For Obama, the senator has become a rare Republican backer of important elements on the presidents second term agenda, including immigration overhaul, stricter background checks for gun buyers, and perhaps a fall budget deal.
The first test of that strategy probably will be the White House-backed immigration overhaul. McCain helped write and shepherd the bill through the Senate last month.

This may well start up those old rumors about a “Manchurian Candidate.”
It's a rumor??!!!??!
They've been working together as a team since their major collaborative effort to put Obama in the Whitehouse in 2008.

“Barack Obama is a good man, he will make a good President... we have nothing to fear from Barack Obama....” - McCain BEFORE the election (pretty much conceded a week or two in advance, ensuring that a lot of Republicans would not bother to vote)
McCain was a “heated” rival? Who knew?
