WASHINGTON, Aug. 11 (UPI) -- Supporters of likely Republican U.S. presidential nominee John McCain say the conflict between Russia and Georgia is making him look better to voters.
Backers of the senator from Arizona say his stand for a tougher stance against Russia, such as his call for the country to be excluded from the Group of Eight industrialized nations, is resonating in the wake of its military campaign against Georgia, The Hill reported Monday.
