Endorsements
Senator Joseph Lieberman, former Democrat and now independent from Connecticut, supports McCain (Lieberman says McCain ready to lead). Jeffrey T. Kuhner made the case for McCain in his Washington Times column based on his stands on the war in Iraq and opposition to abortion.
Polls: People Think McCain is Old
The answer most volunteered when people were asked about McCain was “old” (Poll…).
The word the first comes to OI’s mind when seeing polls like this is “fruitless.”
Vice-Presidential Speculation
Possible running mates for McCain include Sen. Joseph Lieberman, Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, Mitt Romney and Sen. John Thune (McManus).
