Schwarzenegger Will Endorse McCain

By Marc Ambinder
Jan 30 2008, 8:00 PM ET Comment

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is likely to endorse Sen. John McCain before the California primary -- perhaps as early as tomorrow, Republican sources with direct knowledge of the endorsement said.

On CNN today, Schwarzenegger said he has nothing to announce "today" but would not speculate about tomorrow.

McCain and Schwarzenegger have spoken personally within the past few days, and aides are working out a time and location for the governor to give his benediction. The men share a set of issues, including climate change, and a pragmatism that often finds them at odds with their party.

McCain's schedule includes an unspecified Los Angeles political event on Wednesday.

Aides to McCain declined to comment, and an aide and adviser to Schwarzenegger did not respond to requests seeking comment.
