McCain Hires Snowplow For New Hamphire Stumping

 Slideshow: 2008 Presidential Hopefuls

MILFORD, N.H. (AP) ― GOP presidential hopeful John McCain isn't letting snow get in the way of his Straight Talk Express in New Hampshire.

The Arizona senator's campaign hired a snowplow to help make sure his bus gets to campaign events through snow, sleet and freezing rain on Saturday. About a foot of snow fell overnight in much of the state, and sleet and rain were expected during the day.

"We've got one leading the convoy of vehicles," said campaign spokeswoman Jill Hazelbaker. "We are prepared for this New Hampshire weather."

McCain had events scheduled in Nashua and Milford in southern New Hampshire before heading more than an hour and a half north to Lebanon and returning to the southern part of the state for a house party in Bow.

In 2000, McCain won the New Hampshire primary, the nation's first. His swing Saturday through the New England state followed a similar tour of Iowa, where party caucuses traditionally provided as the opening votes for presidential contenders.
