Former Vice President Biden salutes McCain as 'a brother' Reuters By Katherine Davis-Young PHOENIX (Reuters) - The late Republican U.S. Senator John McCain was eulogized from across America's political divide on Thursday by Democratic former Vice President Joe Biden, who hailed his longtime Senate colleague as a "brother" and beacon of bipartisanship. Biden paid tribute to the two-time Republican presidential candidate, who died on Saturday from brain cancer at age 81, during a 90-minute memorial service at North Phoenix Baptist Church, the latest in a string of commemorative salutes to the Vietnam War hero and venerable politician.
