Keating Endorses John McCain
Former Governor Frank Keating, who considered a run for the Republican nomination for president in 2008 himself, today endorsed U. S. Senator John McCain of Arizona.
Appearing on KFOR-TV's "Flash Point" show with Burns Hargis and Mike Turpen, Keating said he knows all the GOP candidates but supports McCain because, in the overall, he is "right on the issues...that matter to me." Keating also revealed that President Bush asked him to become the "czar of the South" to help put states ravaged by Hurricane Katrina back together; he said he declined. Keating also said that he plans to head the American Council of Life Insurers in Washington for several more years, but that he and wife Cathy plan to return to Oklahoma to live within a couple of years.
