LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) -- John McCain is going whole hog in his quest for votes.
The Straight Talk Express stopped by a strip mall as the Republican presidential candidate campaigned here Friday. The bus pulled up in front of the Whole Hog Cafe for a late lunch - pulled pork or plate of brisket prominent on the menu.
McCain, joined by former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee and their wives, even took a trip behind the counter to check out the giant smokers where the meat is cooked and see how the seasonings are prepared.
"Is that a trade secret, your dry rub?" McCain asked. "I think I'm going to have to change my ways."
He departed with a takeout bag of ribs.
