If Fred had wanted to endorse McCain over all the other Republican candidates, he’d have done so when he withdrew from the race. Did you read Fred’s statement? He was ‘endorsing’ the Republican nominee, who just happened to be McCain. I daresay, if it had been Mitt, or even Huckabee, he’d have done the same thing. He wants to defeat the Democrats in November, and he knows that a fractured Republican party can’t do that.
Suzi, you are absolutely right about that.
Too, it’s not like he held a televised announcement.
He simply issued a statement after it became apparent that McCain was going to be the nominee.
He wants a united party going into the most important election in my lifetime.
