"It may strike some conservatives today as odd, if not absurd, to see John McCain being subjected to an auto-da-fé conducted by such Torquemadas of the right as Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Sean Hannity."

"In response, let me offer a thoughtful, considered, carefully worded comment: Would you all please just...shut...up?"

Of course in politics you can change your mind, but for him to do a complete 180 in a few months time and endorse Obama, and really equally ironic that the Limbaugh's of the world have jumped behind McCain.
here is a snippet from his article

“As I warned the world in my last column...”—a highly favorable Op-Ed about McCain, taking Rush Limbaugh and the others in the Right Wing Sanhedrin to task for going after McCain for being insufficiently conservative. I don’t—still—doubt that McCain’s instincts remain fundamentally conservative. But the problem is otherwise.
