Senator John McCain boycott fizzles.

Senator John McCain boycott fizzles.
McCain’s call for G-8 summit boycott fails to
gain momentum


Few, if any, lawmakers are echoing the call of
Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) for the Bush
administration to boycott the upcoming
G-8 Summit in Russia.

McCain, seen as a leading contender for the
Republican nomination in 2008, recently renewed
his plea on the summit. In a short interview,
McCain said the United States should shun the
summit in St. Petersburg in July more so now
than ever. He first called for the boycott
in February.

But McCain’s lead has not been followed,
despite the criticism Vice President Cheney
directed toward Russia during his recent trip
to former Soviet Union territories.
