Former U.S. Sen. John Danforth endorses McCain



ST. LOUIS (AP) — With Missouri’s Super Tuesday primary fast approaching, Republican presidential hopeful John McCain on Thursday picked up the endorsement of longtime Sen. John Danforth.

Danforth and McCain served together in the Senate. Danforth, of St. Louis, has served as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations among many activities since leaving the Senate. Danforth will serve as honorary chairman of McCain’s Missouri campaign.

“John McCain’s lifetime of service, unparalleled knowledge of world affairs and ability to work across party lines make him the best candidate in this election,” Danforth said in a statement.

The endorsement came on the same day California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger endorsed the Arizona senator. McCain predicted a “flood of endorsements across this country from both liberals and conservatives” would soon come his way.

Missouri is among nearly two dozen states holding primaries on Tuesday.
