NY Times rejects McCain op-ed piece

This first popped up on the Drudge Report yesterday and was quickly picked up by ABC news and the other news outlets; the New York Times rejected an op-ed piece written by Senator John McCain, a week after running an op-ed by Barack Obama. Looks like the honeymoon betwen the "Maverick" and the media is over, eh?

Apparently the Times wanted a direct response to Obama's op-ped piece and just generally felt McCain's piece was not "up to snuff", so to speak.
