Sen. John McCain’s town hall meeting reflected his packed schedule during his visit Wednesday as he ran the gamut of his campaign.
McCain, who visited Lake Havasu City for the second time in three months, spoke about several issues including immigration, health care, the economy and foreign affairs during a Town Hall meeting Wednesday afternoon at the Hampton Inn. McCain’s stop in Havasu followed Town Hall meetings in Clifton and Parker as well as appearances at the Lake Havasu Chamber of Commerce, Fire Station No. 2 and the grand opening of his Mohave County Campaign Office in Havasu. McCain said the visit was important so he could let the citizens know first hand his stances on issues leading into the August primary, when he faces a challenge from former Congressman J.D. Hayworth.

McCain said the problem with spending is one that will hurt future generations.
“We’ve mortgaged the futures of our children and committed generational theft,” he said.
“I’ll bet you a lot of people in this room have been to tea parties. The frustration is out there and it’s deserved because there is a disconnect between Washington D.C. and the people. … That’s why the tea parties are important.”

McCain later spoke about his plans for immigration, adding that he does not support amnesty and that the answer is “better border security.” He also said Gov. Jan Brewer “has done a great job on this issue.”

McCain, who did not mention his opponents until asked, responded to Hayworth’s previous claims that he was more conservative than McCain.
“You can’t be a conservative and believe in earmarks and pork barreling which is what he’s done,” McCain said.

And your point is what, exactly?
Are you attempting to defend TARP and the bailouts?
‘Sabe’ is an ass-licking McCain troll. Find the memo Rabs, and pass it on. lol
My point is it is not reason enough to vote against any one US Senator since 3/4 of them were for it.
Why don’t you find another website to pester, troll?
McStain is either too dense or he’s one sick puppy.
