McCain store goes green
John McCain’s online store has added a new department: McCain Eco-Friendly Items.
The new section offers shirts made from biodegradable fabric, organic cotton hats and shopping bags, and travel mugs and notebooks made from recycled materials. (The onesies are adorable.)
“Our campaign believes we can each do our part to protect the environment,” said campaign manager Rick Davis in an e-mail. “… Please take the time today to visit the campaign’s official store to purchase your eco-friendly McCain gear and encourage your friends, family and colleagues to do the same.”
While at the store, you can also follow a link to read more about McCain’s plan to combat climate change.

Clinton’s message to supporters
After winning the primary in West Virginia, Hillary Clinton has sent a mass e-mail out to her supporters, reminding us all that she has no intentions of quitting this race until it is finished:
“After tonight’s tremendous victory here in West Virginia, it’s clear that the pundits declaring this race over have it all wrong. The voters in West Virginia spoke loud and clear — they want this contest to go on.
“I’m listening to the voters — and to you.
“With your help, I’m going to carry the energy of tonight’s victory into the next contests in Kentucky and Oregon. And just as always, I’ll be depending on you to share every step of this journey with me. You have worked your heart out, put yourself on the line for what you believe in, and given generously. And I’m not about to turn my back on you.
“We’ve proved conventional wisdom wrong time and again in this race. We did it again tonight in West Virginia. Let’s keep going.
“Thank you.”
