Wall Street Journal: Blunt ready to back McCain?

The Wall Street Journal reports Seventh District Congressman Roy Blunt may announce his support for presidential candidate John McCain later this week:

McCain is expected to make a trip to Capitol Hill next Wednesday to meet with House Republicans at the weekly Conference meeting and to reach out to Minority Leader John Boehner of Ohio and Minority Whip Roy Blunt of Missouri to shore up their support. Neither has offered an endorsement so far this cycle, but congressional and campaign sources said their support is in the making.
