McCain Seeks to Unite the Nation by Voting For Obama

The American presidential candidate John McCain states that he will vote for the democratic candidate, Barack Obama. This action is a part of McCain’s personal ”bi-partisan act”. – This nation is too great to be torn apart by bitter fights between republicans and democrats, he says to 5080.

McCain claims that the financial crisis is an important reason for the timing of his shift in strategy. – When the the nation bleeds, party politics becomes second, he continues.

McCain’s campaign would like to emphasis that this, in no way, means he will withdraw his candidacy. ”In times like these, America needs an experienced, tax-cutting maverick such as McCain”, the campaign writes on its website. It also says that the McCain campaign expects Obama to be equally decent and polite, and vote for John McCain. ”In fact, we expect all democrats to leave party politics behind and cast their votes for senator John McCain in this difficult period”.

Drastic actions from the republican candidate

The Obama campaign replies that they feel it would be a disrespectful gesture of Obama to give his vote to the republican candidate. – John McCain obviously wishes change. We will honor that wish in the best possible way. We need to treat our war heroes with dignity, vice presidential candidate Joe Biden comments to 5080.
