| | McCain: Republicans must work with Obama
 Sen. John McCain, who once referred to Barack Obama as a "young man with very little experience," Friday urged his Republican colleagues to work with the president-elect to pass a massive stimulus package and revive the U.S. economy.
"Unusual action is required in these most unusual times. The question is will we do it right," McCain told Fox News, noting he was "disappointed" in how the $700 billion bailout has been implemented since its passage last October.
After being asked by Fox News' Neil Cavuto why he supports further government spending, McCain said: "People are losing their jobs ... That will, I hope, make us work together and come up with something.
"Americans are very angry about what happened right now. We have to have more oversight and transparency ... We have to bring these regularity agencies into the 21st century."
McCain called Obama's new national security team "excellent," and said he has spoken to Obama multiple times since Election Night. He said he was "feeling fine" after his defeat, and that he believes the Republican Party will eventually recover.
