5:28Now Playing"MSNBC host of The Cycle, Touré, attacked Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) on Monday for his role in opposing United Nations ambassador Susan Rice's nomination to replace Sec. Hillary Clinton as the next Secretary of State. Touré claimed that McCain is attempting to secure some of his fleeting influence in Washington as the outgoing ranking member of the Senate Armed Services Committee and has done his party's image harm as a white politician opposing a black, female candidate.
"John McCain is a drowning man, grabbing desperately onto anything he thinks can help save him," Touré said. "He's still bitter he lost in '08, and now his time as a powerful Senator is waning."*
Cenk Uygur breaks down McCain and Susan Rice's detractors and why he disagrees with Toure that McCain's issue is a matter of race.
