a difficult sentence starts with "Stand" #1 (permalink) Wed Feb 06, 2008 9:19 am   a difficult sentence starts with "Stand"
 

I was reading online news about US votes 2008, in which I found a difficult sentence that I couldn't understand at all:

"Stand John McCain tells supporters they were super on super Tuesday..."

I need someone help explain the word "Stand" in the above sentence.
I am not sure if it's a name.

It is a misprint of some kind. Can you post the surrounding text?
