..or at least he’d like to.

From Fox News:

COLUMBIA, South Carolina — Sen. John McCain said Tuesday he hopes to patch things up with conservative Christian leader James Dobson, who recently said he would not support the Republican’s presidential bid under any circumstances.

In a radio interview with KCBI, a Dallas Christian station, Dobson argued that McCain did not support traditional marriage values and said he has prayed “we won’t get stuck with him.” Dobson is founder of the Christian conservative group Focus on the Family.

“I’m obviously disappointed and I’d like to continue and have a dialogue with Dr. Dobson and other members of the community,” McCain said Tuesday during a stop in Columbia.

Probably change “like to” to something like “has to” if he’s looking for the nomination.
