WHAT? Barry Goldwater jr. endorsed McCain?

[goldstandard]

According to ocregister.com Barry Goldwater jr. endorsed McCain:

But Bartlett, who along with other Paul supporters has begun attending GOP central committee meetings in Orange County, said he recently heard Barry Goldwater Jr. speak. Goldwater endorsed McCain.

"He made a lot of our activists think,'' Bartlett said.

McCain's support for the Iraq war and his positions on immigration don't sit well with Paul supporters, Bartlett said.

ronpaul2008 still lists him as an endorsement.

I read something similar a while back. I cant remember where I read it. I'm going to see if I can dig it up.

I always said that as we head to November we will see who the true patriots are and who the team cheerleaders are. Let's hope Barry is not a cheerleader...

I found a similar article. It's not the one that I read a while back, but its similar...

"Goldwater Jr., who supported Ron Paul during the Republican primary, plans to vote for McCain in the general election and believes that his father would do the same."

None of these articles directly quote Goldwater Jr.

I won't believe it til I see or hear Barry Goldwater Jr. say it himself. That would be disheartening for sure.

 

[acptulsa]

Well, we know for sure he endorsed Ron Paul.

Well, I'd say it's time for the email bomb, but who knows if Goldwater wound up endorsing both?

The important thing is - who would Thomas Jefferson endorse?

Ron for Veep ( even though he personally favors and prefers John Adams ).

I don't know if it is that surprising that he said he prefers McCain over Obama if he was forced to choose.
