In between songs, 34-year-old Rich declared himself a Texas west conservative and confessed he got frustrated when he turned on the television because I always see the other side represented.
When he performed Johnny Cashs Walk the Line, Rich said that he was sure Cash would have been a John McCain supporter if he was still around.
John McCain and his wife Cindy arrived at the concert, just as Rich was performing the Raising McCain song.
He gave a short speech in which he asked for votes in the battleground state and reminded the crowd, which included several military veterans, that he supported the war in Iraq.
We will not surrender, not in Iraq or Afghanistan or anywhere else in the world, he told the public.

Hum, if you know anything about Big and Rich, then you would obviously know the headline would have to be;
Save and Elephant, ride a donkey...
IMHO...
It is something that most country music singers are Republican - while most RAPPERs are Democrats. I know I’d rather listen to country — then hearing some drugged out POS saying the N word, the B word and Killing or the F word.
Unlikely. Cash was a politically naive lefty who hung out with the likes of Carter and Clinton.

“He gave a short speech in which he asked for votes in the battleground state and reminded the crowd, which included several military veterans, that he supported the war in Iraq.”
McCain asked the veterans to raise their hands. There were many in the crowd. He thanked them for their service. As I was waiting to shake his hand, I heard him thank a young man in front of me for his service.
The Rich song is a good one. It had the crowd rocking.
