McCain to stump for Nussle

Arizona Sen. John McCain has scheduled a visit to Iowa to campaign for Jim Nussle, who is seeking the Republican nomination for governor.

McCain will be the featured speaker at a Cedar Rapids luncheon on April 13 to raise money for Nussle.

"I am pleased to have the opportunity to visit Iowa and campaign for Rep. Jim Nussle," McCain said in a statement released today by Nussle's campaign.

Dammit John...

Looks like someone's pandering to the far right of his party so they caucus for him in a few years.. Doesn't he realize Frist or someone else the fundies are more comfortable with will swift boat his ass in 2008 again?

McCain is one of the few republicans I like. In the right situation I could even see myself voting for him in 2008. He's not helping himself out much with the huge number of moderate democrats who like him when he supports a right-wing ass like Nussle, or when he meddles in another state's politics.

I agree with the above. McCain quickly loses any semblance of "independence" when he campaigns in Iowa for strong right-winger, budget-busting Jim Nussle.
