McCain got positive feedback concerning our ties to Georgia. Cited the Georgian status as democratic ally and the fact of their help in Iraq.

Major applause line, though, seemed to come when–his voice rising–he said this crisis emphasized the importance of developing our own energy resources. Declared we need to stop exporting our wealth to “countries that don’t like us all that much.”
To growing applause and shouts he ended by demanding that Congress reconvene to address this pressing problem.
