McCain and SC Senator to Meet with Obama Monday

Fri, November 14, 2008 - 10:00 AM

President-elect Barack Obama will meet with the man he defeated to become the 44th president, Sen. John McCain, on Monday in Chicago, the transition committee announced this morning. Joining McCain will be South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, a close confidant of McCain's who frequently campaigned with him this fall, will sit in on the meeting, along with Rahm Emanuel, who will serve as Obama's chief of staff.

"It's well known that they share an important belief that Americans want and deserve a more effective and efficient government, and will discuss ways to work together to make that a reality," a transition committee spokeswoman said.
