McCain responds to Cheney criticism (VIDEO)
Former Alaska governor Sarah Palin speaks during a Tea Party Express rally on Sept. 5, 2011, in Manchester, New Hampshire.
Yesterday, former Vice President Dick Cheney called Senator John McCain’s (R-Ariz) choice to select Sarah Palin as his 2008 VP running mate a “mistake” (see above).
Today, McCain responded:
"I'm always glad to get comments four years later. Look, I respect the vice president. He and I had strong disagreements as to whether we should torture people or not. I don't think we should have."
