Ignoring support for waste storage at Yucca, NY Sun said McCain's position on international nuclear waste storage "could win him votes in Nevada"

SUMMARY: New York Sun reporter Eli Lake wrote that in a May 27 speech on nuclear safety, Sen. John McCain said "he favored the creation of an international repository where all spent nuclear fuel could eventually be sent," which Lake described as a "position that could win him votes in Nevada." However, Lake did not note that McCain has previously supported storing nuclear waste at Yucca Mountain in Nevada.
