John McCain at Serb Hall

Presumptive Republican presidential nominee John McCain plans to attend the Milwaukee County Reagan Day Dinner at Serb Hall on Friday.

From the
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:

Republican presidential candidate John McCain plans to visit Milwaukee Friday night, attending the Reagan Day Dinner sponsored by the Milwaukee County Republican Party.

The McCain campaign has not formally announced the visit, but it is listed on McCain's website as an upcoming event. The dinner, at Serb Hall on the city's south side, begins at 7 p.m.

Here's information on the dinner;

HOST COMMITTEE

Rick Baas, Terry Dittrich, Douglas D. Haag, Jay Hintz, Rep. Mark Honadel, David Karst, Marilyn Kruchell, Jim McFarland, Vicky Ostry, Rep. Jim Ott, Robert Spindell, Rep. Jeff Stone, Nancy Thompson, Rep. Leah Vukmir, Cnty Exec Scott Walker

5:30 p.m. Private reception

6:00 p.m. Social Hour

7:00 p.m. Dinner & Program–“Milwaukee’s Best Fish Fry”

Silent Auction 5:30 p.m. to 6:45 p.m.

Meet, greet and show your support for the candidates for the Presidential Republican Nominees Rudy Giuliani, John McCain, Mike Huckabee, and Mitt Romney

Also, meet, greet and show support for candidates for statewide and county offices

Any questions or to RSVP, please call 414-727-1220.

Of course, Giuliani and Romney are history. Notice Ron Paul wasn't mentioned. He gets no respect, no respect at all.

It's a good thing that McCain will be attending the dinner, especially since Mike Huckabee will be spending three days in Wisconsin.

I suspect McCain is increasing his time in Wisconsin to do his best to avoid any more embarrassing defeats in primaries and caucuses.

Huckabee's momentum in spite of McCain's virtual lock on the nomination is an issue.

Wisconsin has been a battleground state in the past two presidential elections. It is wise for McCain to at least show some interest in Wisconsin during the primary season.

Most importantly, Milwaukeeans do not have to worry about politics getting in the way of their Serb Hall Friday Fish Fry plans.

The Reagan Day Dinner will be held in a separate area of the facility.

Serb Hall's Friday Fish Fry will be available to the public as usual. Good news.
