"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.
I'm not sure how it's a 180 being that there isn't an endorsement anywhere in the article you posted.
