If McCain is nominee, Bush will help campaign

The LA Times

WASHINGTON -- President Bush pledged Sunday to assist Sen. John McCain's campaign for the presidency assuming he wins the Republican Party nomination -- but acknowledged that the Arizona senator has "got some convincing to do" among the party's conservatives.

In an interview with "Fox News Sunday" at his retreat at Camp David, Md., Bush was careful to note that two Republicans are still competing for the nomination, and he did not express a preference.

But Bush made clear that he was willing to set aside the tensions he has had with McCain in the past, and he praised the front-runner as "a true conservative."
