Giuliani Notes: Will McCain ENDORSE Rudy?
Newsday: Presidential hopeful McCain brushes off Giuliani lead in polls
Presidential hopeful John McCain was back on his rivals’ turf Thursday, speaking on the war in Iraq at a fundraiser in Manhattan and brushing off questions about Rudy Giuliani’s surge in the polls.
“This is early in the campaign,” the Arizona Senator told reporters. “We’ve got a lot of work to do. We are doing very well in the early primary states. This campaign … is still in spring training. The results will be based on record and vision and a lot of that will come out in the debates and the forthcoming campaign. We are very happy where we are.”
Right.
McCain is happy to be 25 points down in the polls to Rudy Giuliani. This must make his day.
The quotes:
“He’s an American hero and I can certainly understand why people would admire him very much,” McCain said.
“I’m not here to try to tout Mayor Giuliani for President of the United States, but having said that, he understands law and order,” McCain said. “He worked in the Justice Department. He has many qualifications that I think are impressive, but I’d like to stop touting his candidacy.”
Maybe Rudy should ask the good Senator for an endorsement, since McCain is so impressed with Hizzoner.
