McCain stumps for Wakim at city luncheon
 Less than a week after the National Republican Congressional Committee cut the television advertising budget for a contested congressional race in West Virginia, U.S. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., stumped for Republican candidate Chris Wakim in Charleston. On Monday, McCain asked a crowd of about 75 supporters, who paid $250 a plate to attend the fundraising luncheon at the Embassy Suites hotel, to do whatever they could to help elect Wakim, a state delegate representing Ohio County, to the U.S. House of Representatives. Im here because I believe in him, McCain said. We need a person with his qualifications and integrity in Washington today. Wakim is running against 12-term incumbent Rep. Alan Mollohan, D-W.Va., in the states 1st Congressional District.Posted by: Fred 2006-10-18 |
