John McCain

Senators John McCain, Joe Lieberman, and Lindsey Graham released the following statement on Syria:

Senator John McCain’s floor statement on Syria today rightly focused on the Obama administration’s bizarre conviction that the Russians have the ability and perhaps even the desire to get Bashar al-Assad to step down.

Arizona senator John McCain just released the following statement on the Obama campaign's Osama bin Laden campaign ad: 

"Shame on Barack Obama for diminishing the memory of September 11th and the killing of Osama bin Laden by turning it into a cheap political attack ad. This is the same President who once criticized Hillary Clinton for invoking bin Laden 'to score political points.'

American Crossroads has a new ad riffing off the John McCain campaign's popular "Celebrity" ad from the 2008 election.

Senators John McCain, Joe Lieberman, and Lindsey Graham issued a joint statement today urging the Obama administration to act on Syria.

A new online ad from Newt Gingrich reminds voters of what the three principals from the 2008 South Carolina primary--John McCain, Mike Huckabee, and Fred Thompson--had to say about Mitt Romney at the time. Watch below:

Manchester, N.H.
