John McCain is on day two of a bus tour of Ohio, stopping today in Lima (home of the famous Kewpee burgers!) for a town hall meeting before meeting with local officials about the controversial closing of a DHL shipping site in nearby Wilmington. But the big news here last night wasn’t really centered in Ohio, but thousands of miles away in Miami, where one of McCain’s Straight Talk Express buses collided with a van while ferrying around Sen. Joe Lieberman, who was in town campaigning for the presumptive GOP nominee. No one was injured in the crash. Reporters first heard about the story when network news editors began frantically calling producers here on the road to find out if McCain was injured. The senator, in fact, was on a separate Straight Talk bus—one of four the campaign has positioned around the country—en route to a fundraiser near Columbus. Word of the wreck prompted plenty of joking among reporters traveling with McCain this week about who had decided to loan the keys to Lieberman. “You’re letting Joe take the bus out for joyrides?” one reporter asked McCain aide Mark Salter, who laughed. We weren’t the only ones poking fun. The headline in the Miami New Times: “Who Let Gramps Drive the Bus?” All joking aside, it seems that the Straight Talk wasn’t at fault. According to local news reports, it was the driver of the minivan who lost control of his car, not the opposite way around.
