Drudge loves to tease with headlines. It’ll be up in a half hour.

Just weeks away from a possible surprise victory in the primaries, Republican presidential candidate Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz has been waging a ferocious behind the scenes battle with the NEW YORK TIMES, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned, and has hired DC power lawyer Bob Bennett to mount a bold defense against charges of giving special treatment to a lobbyist!

Dear Sgt_Schultze,

Aha! Thanks! I shoulda waited another minute to post. LOL.

From Drudge:

“Just weeks away from a possible surprise victory in the primaries, Republican presidential candidate Sen.

Well sort of. My sources say McCain really did offer to be Kerry's running mate in 2004! (Just kidding. I'm like an elephant. I don't forget!)

Does anyone actually care?

McCain’s not going to win the nomination no matter what is said, or not said.

Dear Admin Moderator,

Would it be possible to edit the thread to add to the article portion what Drudge now has up?

“Just weeks away from a possible surprise victory in the primaries, Republican presidential candidate Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz has been waging a ferocious behind the scenes battle with the NEW YORK TIMES, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned, and has hired DC power lawyer Bob Bennett to mount a bold defense against charges of giving special treatment to a lobbyist!”

Thanks,

Actually, he’s been coming on strong of late in the early states.

If he were the nominee, the MSM would beat him to a pulp with that. McLame has been paying for that deed by restricting givers because he is too week to restrain himself from his avarice.

He should have man'd-up and resigned then. That he held on was rather ... clintonian.
