piece by jonathan martin in the new york times, who spoke to, among many people, about 30 people, joe liebermanoe biden as well. so thank you for this reporting. and, i mean, it is difficult to even talk about john mccain's funeral, but this is something he's publicly talking about, jonathan. >> yeah, i mean, mccain now is facing the fight of his life. and he is doing what a lot of folks do when they have this kind of challenge, they're reckoning with their past and they're reminiscing about their past and they're seeing lots of old friends and but they're also thinking about the future and, look, you know, politics does not wait for -- depend on niceties and discretion. the fact is this is an election year, the senate is up for grabs, the republicans have a one seat majority, and if mccain passes away before the end of may, there could be two senate elections this fall in arizona. so this is kind of a story about mccain's life, but it is also very much a political story in the here and now. >> it is. and he urged, according to your reporting, joe biden not to walk away from politics. >> right.

he says he regrets not having picked joe lieberman. joe lieberman and mccain have been and are extremely close. they have worked together on policy for decades. they have a very special bond. i think john wishes he had picked the man with whom he had this very special bond. but i can tell you from personal experience that anybody who has ever said anything remotely disparaging about sarah palin gets an earful from john mccain. i remember having done so once and john mccain got as angry as i have ever seen him with me. cindy mccain was there. lindsey graham was there. they will remember. so i think this is a big misunderstanding. i think it was a headline that came out in an outlet, maybe the hill, saying that he regretted picking sarah palin. he did not say that. he said he wished he had picked his friend, not because he didn't want sarah palin but because of the special friendship with joe lieberman. look, john mccain is this guy who has got this old fashioned sense of chivalry and loyalty. he is grateful, he is respectful for anybody

suggestion that picking her was a mistake, but the passage referred to a mistake in not picking joe liebermans running mate. what do you think about how john mccain felt about the decision to pick sarah palin specifically, not -- not picking his friend but picking her specifically? >> he was doing it to try to energize his campaign. he felt that he needed to do something big to respond to barack obama. then a candidate. and he needed to do something to show that he could tech to a different generation of republican voters. so a lot of the conventional wisdom said a pick like lieberman would be more interesting, create the bipartisan ticket. he went for palin. initially it was a success. that quickly failed as palin stumbled on television and on the campaign trail. i think he regrets it. i think that was why he did it. it opened the door to elements of the republican party that mccain is now dealing with. some of the world of donald trump comes together in the palin pick. and with palin joining the ticket. i think that's also part of its regret. >> yeah. i expect we'll learn more about that de

this is no secret that mccain preferred joe lieberman. that campaign, but he was being pressured from the right because conservatives didn't trust mccain already. having lieberman in there, a watered ideology down even more, so that was why sarah palin was perfect. many people pointed out it was a pivotal moment for the republican party, a big victory for the far right, which -- >> it was a hell of a movie by the way, game-changer. woody harrelson playing our friend. what do you think of that sarah palin? >> i think she showed some class. let's remember that we're in this moment where it's almost like people are hitting rock bottom when it comes to joking about people that rock bottom w comes to joking people that are sick. >> if you're even reasonably decent you look pretty good right now. it's why people are saying look at george bush. so many people think war in iraq and katrina when you think of george bush but he's also have this renaissance when democrats are saying i miss the days of george bush. >> i'm waiting for him to totally d
