John McCain, R-Ariz. talks to reporters on Capitol Hill in Washington, upon his return from a two-hour meeting at the White House between President Barack Obama and Republican senators, trying to come up with a bipartisan solution to the budget stalemate. Sen. McCain says the Arizona Republican Party¹s censure of him over the weekend may just motivate him to run for a sixth term. The censure vote came during a meeting of state committee members who cited McCain¹s voting record as being insufficiently conservative. The members say McCain has campaigned as a conservative but has lent his support to immigration reform and funding President Obama¹s national health care initiative. (AP Photo/J.
