NEW YORK (AP) - David Letterman and Sen. John McCain will get a
chance to make up.
The Republican presidential candidate is scheduled to appear on
Letterman's "Late Show" on Thursday.
It will be McCain's 13th visit to the CBS program but his first
since he angered Letterman by canceling last month.
Letterman was unhappy when McCain sat for an interview with
Katie Couric instead of him on Sept. 24.
At the time he said he first felt like a "patriot" to let
McCain off his commitment to deal with the economy but "now I'm
feeling like an ugly date."
A McCain spokeswoman said at the time that because of the
economic crisis, the campaign "felt this wasn't a night for
comedy."
