John McCain spoke to the National Council of La Raza in San Diego Monday, walking a delicate political tightrope on the issue of immigration.
In 2005, McCain joined Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.) in sponsoring a bill that would lead to comprehensive immigration reform — including securing the border with Mexico as well as providing a path to citizenship for those already here.
But McCain has stepped away from that position recently, stating that he would not vote for that same bill today.
But wait … Monday McCain told attendees at the La Raza conference that he would, indeed, support comprehensive immigration reform. Read Martin Wisckol’s story for more details.
