A senior adviser to John McCain says the Republican presidential candidate’s campaign is now talking with senior White House staff everyday.
President Bush and McCain, former GOP rivals, “have an excellent relationship,” Charlie Black said at a lunch hosted by the Christian Science Monitor.

All aboard the Double Talk Express!
Sheesh, catch you later.....
