Chicken Wings with McCain: The Movie

by Doug

Last week, Skip and I had the opportunity to travel along with Republican presidential candidate John McCain as he and his "No Surrender Tour" made its way across the Granite State. Whether he’s your guy or not, his efforts to raise the sagging public support needed to sustain and finish the war in the Iraqi front of the new world war deserves our appreciation.

When talking about having access to a political  candidate for some real one on one, nobody holds a candle, at this point, to Senator McCain. How could you get any closer, or have a greater opportunity to engage with a would-be president? Check out this video sampler of our bus trip with John McCain. In one part, he acknowledges being with “bloggers” on the bus, with video running. That’s us. This guy seems to genuinely appreciate the Blogging community. As you watch, keep in mind that it’s about four minutes of film taken from about an hour’s worth taken during our ride. It is but a small representation of the amount of open and free talk that we had with the Senator.

Pretty cool, eh? This was the same trip we did the Woolsey interview, which can be found by clicking here. He rode in the bus with us, too.

    Doug and Skip,
    I found your GraniteGrok from an e-mail from Crystal Benton of the McCain Campaign. Wow. Great site and great stuff on McCain. I tried to trackback using Haloscan but kept getting an error message that I was “pinging too rapidly.” I posted More First Hand Accounts from the McCain Campaign at my blog http://www.azamatterofact.com
    With excerpts from your posts linking back to them individually.
    I hope you’ll stop by. Also, I created a blogroll, Straight Talkin’ Bloggers for McCain. I hope you will consider adding it to GraniteGrok.
