Senator John McCain, Giuliani to visit Illinois and campaign for Topinka

Judy Baar Topinka said former New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani and Senator John McCain will travel to Illinois in the next week to stump for her campaign.

Giuliani, who has been mentioned as a potential 2008 Republican presidential candidate, is scheduled to appear Tuesday at a campaign event in Bolingbrook in Will County.

McCain, a Republican from Arizona, is slated to appear with Topinka at a campaign event in Fairview Heights near St. Louis on Saturday.

Giuliani and McCain aren't the only high-profile Republicans to try and help Topinka oust Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

Last week, Pres. George W. Bush traveled to Chicago and helped Topinka raise $1.2 million during a posh $500-a-plate fund-raiser at the Drake Hotel.
