U.S. Rep. Mark Kirk, when not stretching the truth about health care reform, is apparently busy lining up heavy-hitter endorsements for his 2010 U.S. Senate campaign. At an appearance today in Glenview, Kirk will receive the stamp of approval from U.S. Sen. John McCain. In a statement, McCain said, “The people of Illinois deserve a senator who will restore honest government, strengthen our national security, fight for veterans and bring fiscal discipline to Washington. Mark Kirk has my strongest endorsement.” [Tribune]
