Colbert: So (McCain) changed his opinions from 2000 to 2008. People do

Colbert: Perhaps he knows that that’s what he has to do to get elected.
He was ”The Maverick” in 2000; that did not get him elected. But if he
toes the party line in 2008, maybe that…he’s just doing what he needs to
do to get elected. What’s so wrong with that?
Huffington: You mean selling his soul in order to get elected?
Huffington: He was a real reformer. And now, he’s basically completely
surrendered on everything. He wants us all to stay in Iraq of course
indefinitely. And here’s the one little problem: that he has this kind

last more than a hundred years, pull out.
