This afternoon Sen. John McCain arrived in Lexington, SC, on a stop during his ‘No Surrender Tour’.

We met the senator as he walked out of his tour bus following his speech to a crowd of United States Veterans. Sen. McCain thanked us for the cause that we drive day-in and day-out and said that whenever he has an opportunity, he speaks out on our behalf.

We presented him with a band even though he was already wearing one in support of ONE Vote ’08! We made sure that he knew that we appreciate his efforts to further acknowledge ONE. We look forward to meeting with Senator McCain again in the near future.
