AD FACTS: Script For "Praising McCain" (WEB 1:00)
CHYRON: John McCain is a Maverick. Just ask Democrats. SEN. DASCHLE: He can work with Democrats on key issues whether it's campaign finance reform or tobacco policy. He's worked with us.
· Senator Tom Daschle (D-SD): "Well, John McCain has always been influential in the Senate, in part because of the positions he holds. I don't think influence is determined necessarily just by position; he's obviously influential out of recognition of his chairmanship of the Commerce Committee. But he's also influential because he can work with Democrats on key issues, whether it's campaign finance reform or tobacco policy. He's worked with us, and that has made him, I think, a source of great influence in the Senate." (Sen. Tom Daschle, Press Conference, 3/10/00)
SEN. BIDEN: John McCain is a personal friend, a great friend and I would be honored to run with or against John McCain.
· Senator Joe Biden (D-DE) Said He'd Be Honored To Run With McCain. Comedy Central's Jon Stewart: "You may end up going against a Senate colleague, perhaps McCain, perhaps Frist?" Sen. Biden: "John McCain is a personal friend, a great friend, and I would be honored to run with or against John McCain, because I think the country would be better off -- be well off no matter who..." Stewart: "Did I hear, Did I hear with?" Sen. Biden: "You know, John McCain and I think" Stewart: "Don't become cottage cheese my friend. Say it." Sen. Biden: "The answer is yes." (Comedy Central's "The Daily Show" 8/2/05)
SEN. KERRY: I have enormous respect for him. He's a courageous, patriotic American who stands up for what he believes.

SEN. FEINGOLD: I love John McCain, he's a great guy.
· Senator Russ Feingold (D-WI): "You know, I love John McCain. He's a great guy. The fact is we do disagree on Iraq, but I think that on the overall fight against terrorism and that that's the number one priority there's a lot of agreement. John and I have been to Baghdad together twice and talked about this at length so obviously I'm gonna be supporting a Democrat for president of the United States, but I have a very high regard for John McCain, and this is just an area of disagreement. We agree tremendously on reform and worked together well and I'm proud to serve with him in the Senate." (ABC's, "This Week," 8/13/06)

To remain below these limits, the bill encourages the market to determine how best to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, rewarding cost effective approaches using a system of tradable allowances."
