MEDIA, Pa. -- When Sen. John McCain campaigned at a motorcycle rally last month in Sturgis, S.D., he joked that he'd urged his wife, Cindy, to enter the semi-nude "Miss Buffalo Chip" beauty contest.

The burly bikers gathered there gunned their engines loudly in appreciation.

On Monday, McCain offered to pack his running mate, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, onto a custom chopper and drive her to Washington to “raise hell.” The response this time was applause and laughter.

Then the GOP's vice presidential nominee announced a surprise for McCain.

Heavy metal music thundered from loudspeakers. Then, barrel-chested, blond-haired, grandly tattooed Paul Teutel slowly rode a gleaming, cream-colored chopper up a ramp and onto the stage, followed by sons Paul Jr. and Mikey. The crowd cheered at the sight.
