McCain’s record or even the words on this page, Republicans should still recognize the great opportunity we have in electing Sen. McCain this November. We all would be wise not to be misled by the cries of a few Chicken Littles. Instead, we must embrace this new opportunity to go out and show voters a strong Republican Party with candidates who can lead this nation and who will not simply inspire hope but show the American people the power of results.
