McCain's 'I swear it's not political' trip abroad includes a high dollar fundraiser in London:

The trans-Atlantic fund-raiser, to be held March 20 at the home built by the first Earl Spencer, an ancestor of Diana, the late Princess of Wales, comes at the end of a foreign trip that Mr. McCain, the presumptive Republican nominee for president, has repeatedly said is not political. Mr. McCain is to travel to London, Paris and the Middle East next week with Senators Lindsey Graham, Republican of South Carolina, and Joseph I. Lieberman, independent of Connecticut.

“I do want to emphasize again that the three of us are going as members of the Armed Services Committee,” Mr. McCain told reporters on his campaign bus on Friday in Philadelphia. “And we will emphasize that at every stop.”
