If you were courting Republican primary voters, would you say this:

A very bad Secretary of Transportation and absolutely no good will from the Democrats.Republican John McCain says he intends to appoint a Democrat to a high-profile Cabinet post if he’s elected president.
“There are very highly qualified Democrats on a number of issues,” McCain said. “The more efforts you can make towards bipartisanship, I think in Washington today, the better off you are. But it also better be, one, an important post and, two, a person who has the ear of the president.”
We don't want a uniter, we want a fighter.
