"Today I am proud to endorse my friend and a true
American hero, John McCain, for President of the United States. While I respect
all of the Republicans running for president this year, John McCain is the only
candidate who can rally the Reagan coalition of conservatives, Independents, and
conservative Democrats needed to defeat Hillary Clinton or any other Democrat in
the general election next year. John McCain has spent a lifetime standing up for
human rights around the world, including a consistent 24-year pro-life record of
protecting the rights of the unborn. John McCain alone has the courage,
leadership and character to lead our party to victory in 2008 while keeping
faith with our most cherished values -- life, faith and family."
John McCain issued the following statement accepting Senator Brownback's endorsement:
"I am deeply honored to receive the support of my
friend Senator Sam Brownback. Sam Brownback is a man of faith and compassion
whose integrity and unwavering commitment to protecting the dignity of human
life, both born and unborn, has been an inspiration to me. We Republicans must
stand firm in our deepest principles to rally the conservative Reagan coalition
and win a great victory next November. Sam Brownback's counsel and friendship
will be invaluable as we work to achieve this worthy goal, and I thank him for
his support."
