John McCain Feted In Nashville

A country music concert held for Republican presidential nominee John McCain proclaimed "Don't let the USA become an Obama-Nation." Get it? "Obama Nation" sounds like the word Abomination.

Obama: oh no you didn't!

The concert was led by country music singer, John Rich, half of the duo Big and Rich. He also penned a song for McCain titled "Raising McCain." Get it? "Raising Cain."

McCain's Country Music Extravaganza

PANAMA CITY, Fla. -- "Can I get a yee-haw?"

With that, country music star John Rich launched into a spirited "Country First" concert on behalf Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) tonight featuring his number-one hit "Lost in This Moment with You" and the debut of a song he had written especially for the presumptive GOP nominee, "Raising McCain."

The free concert, sponsored by the Florida Republican Party, attracted several hundred people including a fan sporting a homemade T-shirt saying, "Don't let the USA become an Obama-Nation."
