Introducing John McCain in Missouri just how:

Thank you, thank you. You know they said, they said they did not think Missourians would turn out on a Sunday afternoon when its as hot as this, but you sure did. People all over the country, people all over the country are watching Missouri and understanding why it is you came out and it's because this is a critical year and a critical time. And you want to make sure our next president is someone who when talk about protecting our nation and doesn't just a let's sit down with the world's worst actors Ahmadinejad and the Castro brothers. But instead says, let's sit down with the best democracies in the world and form a league of democracies. Let's protect America. You want to make sure the people of America understand that when it comes to strengthening our economy we're not in favor of raising taxes and cutting off trade and drawing a line and saying no nuclear, no coal, and no more drilling. Instead, you want a president who will say I'll get this economy going with low taxes, and more trade for our goods, and yes, we will drill for more oil. We want a president who combines with a great maverick, two mavericks come together on a team to take on the tough challenges America faces. Washington is broken, and these two are going to fix it. Now I just got back from the Olympics over in Beijing, and I was over there watching an event and some people around the stadium were noticing me and taking my picture. These were Americans and some Chinese I said to my wife, you better be careful how you look because they are taking our picture. She pointed behind me, there was Kobe Bryant sitting behind us. I feel the same way right now. You don't want to listen to me. Let's listen to the next president and vice-president of the United States, John McCain and Sarah Palin.
