In a Newsweek cover story, assistant managing editor Evan Thomas wrote of Sen. John McCain: "[W]hen some of his advisers tried to get him to soften his stances on immigration and Iraq, he snapped, 'Don't try to change my mind.' ... It was a characteristically principled stand." In fact, McCain has reversed himself on a key immigration issue.
