BILOXI, Mississippi -- U.S. Senator and former Republican presidential nominee John McCain will campaign for his longtime colleague Thad Cochran this weekend on the Mississippi coast.
McCain and Cochran will make an appearance somewhere in the Biloxi/Gulfport area on Sunday. The time and place are still being determined, according to Adam Buckalew with the Cochran campaign.
In a bit of political irony, McCain's former running-mate, Sarah Palin, has endorsed Cochran's opponent, state Sen. Chris McDaniel of Ellisville.
Cochran and McCain have served together in the U.S. Senate for the past 27 years.
Also, late Wednesday the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, which has endorsed Cochran, released an ad featuring NFL legend and native Mississippian Brett Favre:

This is interesting. I wonder if McCain will have a measurably negative effect on Cochran’s campaign. Neither of them seem to realize that Republicans generally do not like McCain.
All the more reason you should vote for McDaniel.
Every time I turn around I’m reminded that I actually voted for this s.o.b.
