McCain Visits Aiken for Campaign Finance Reform Push
Republican John McCain spoke at a packed Aiken town hall about campaign finance reform and government overhaul. He warned against big money and budget surpluses while prioritizing Social Security, and praised Strom Thurmond before addressing a wide range of issues. In Orangeburg, Navy veteran Walt Oliver waited 30 years to meet McCain and gave a copper bracelet and letter, which McCain accepted and urged him to keep as a memento.
