Another internal disconnect

The McCain campaign, making up a new line of attack on Barack Obama's bipartisan credentials:

there is nothing in his record that demonstrates an ability to reach across the aisle

John McCain, praising Obama for supporting his immigration bill in May of 2006:

I also want to thank Senators Brownback, Lieberman, Graham, Salazar, Martinez, Obama, and DeWine for their shared commitment to this issue, and working to ensure this bill moved successfully intact through the legislative process.

Of course, it's also true that McCain capitulated to pressure from his own party on the immigration issue. So he doesn't support the bipartisan position he once held. Doesn't that make him a  *gasp* partisan?
