John and Cindy McCain
One of the best applause lines in Sen. John McCain’s speech in Prescott on Saturday was a reference to his wife Cindy.
“I was introduced to Arizona by my wife, Cindy, whose love for this place I soon shared. Guided by her superior judgment, to which I am always indebted…”
At that point, McCain had to pause for a moment while the women in the crowd of more than 500 cheered.
Then he continued, “… we made the decision to raise our children here.”
Before McCain took the podium, one of his warm-up speakers, Sen. Jon Kyl, elicited a fair laugh himself. Kyl’s task was to introduce Cindy McCain, who in turn introduced her husband.
Kyl quipped, “My friends, we know that Cindy McCain will be the best first lady of the United States. I won’t even mention the first bubba candidate.”
