And he's shown it back.

From ExxonMcCain:

John McCain decided on a running mate for November, and it wasn't among the usual suspects. No, with the recent flood of oil money into John McCain's campaign, and his plan to give Big Oil $4 billion in tax breaks, the presumptive Republican nominee chose to run on the GOP ticket with Big Oil.

UPDATE: John McCain flip flops yet again. He was opposed to telling voters to inflate their tires properly before he was for it. McCain just threw his campaign and the GOP's messaging of the past few days under the bus. Hope the tires were inflated properly.

His campaign went further, distributing to reporters tire gauges engraved with the words "Obama's energy plan."

Predictably, Obama hit back calling McCain's mockery "ignorant," arguing his plans were being misrepresented and saying that experts backed his call over tire pressure. Equally predictably, McCain's camp hit back.

The surprise came during a telephone town hall meeting McCain held on Tuesday with voters in Pennsylvania.

"Obama said a couple of days ago says we all should inflate our tires. I don't disagree with that. The American Automobile Association strongly recommends it," McCain said.

So is the GOP stooges going to pass out tire pressure gauges criticizing McCain now to remain consistent? Apparently McCain's memory troubles are so bad he forgets his own messages.
