HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — Republican John McCain told voters in Pennsylvania on Tuesday he was personally tested by the same kind of crisis that Democratic vice presidential nominee Joseph Biden warned Barack Obama will almost certainly face if elected president. McCain recalled being ready to launch a bombing run during the October 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, which Biden said over the weekend tested a new President John F. Kennedy and was the template for the kind of “generated crisis” the 47-year-old Obama would face in office.—-Contact The Daily Reveille’s news staff at [email protected]
