“It was a bad beginning,” McCain said of the legislative process that led to the stimulus bill. “It was a bad beginning because it wasn’t what we promised the American people, what President Obama promised the American people – that we would sit down together.”
McCain offers this advice: "Let's start over now and sit down together."
He appeared Sunday on CNN's "State of the Union."
