McCain accuses Obama of flip-flopping on race

Presidential contender Barack Obama has been flip-flopping on race, says presumptive Republican candidate John McCain.

“One week he tries to appeal to white voters by saying he says he’s half white,” said McCain. “The next week he panders to black voters by saying he’s half black.”

“This is the kind of flip-flopping and issue-avoidance we’ve come to expect from Democrats.”

When asked about his own racial background, McCain said: “When you’ve been captured by the Vietnamese, held prisoner for hundreds of years and tortured thousands of times, race is no longer an issue.”
