Inhofe tears into McCain
(By Jordan Fabian, The Hill) - Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.) went after his fellow GOP Sen. John McCain (Ariz.) as the latter faced reelection Tuesday.
Inhofe, rated as one of the most conservative members of the upper chamber, attacked McCain's conservative credentials and said he only gets elected because of his opposition to earmarks.
The Tulsa World wrote that Inhofe "attacked" McCain as a "closet liberal," then quoted Inhofe as saying he "gets elected because of one thing -- earmarks."
It is rare to see senators from the same party criticize one another directly - especially in an election year.
