The timing of this makes no sense. There’s probably nothing to it but if there is, why now? It’s way too early. They’d keep it until the week before the election like the story about Bush’s DUI.
Dittos!
Well, Romney’s campaign I believe is actually still just “suspended.”
Romney can “direct” his delegates to McCain, which is what he said he would do.
The endorsement press conference was more about perception and influencing those still voting, than about changing the actual delegate calculus.
Romney wanted to make sure that Huckabee doesn’t have any hand to play at the convention where he could possibly broker the VP spot.
And speaking of that endorsement event, first of all, didn’t it look like some sort of weird hostage tape, quickly thrown together in some basement, with a flag tacked to the wall as a back drop?
And seeing McCain next to Romney, was there ever a time where it was more obvious the GOP had made a terrible mistake and had picked the wrong guy? Seeing them together like like gave me a knot in my stomach, as I felt the ultimate Buyer’s Remorse.
Sure, and you sound like you have pictures?
Question, is Vickie sitting on McCain’s lap while on Gary Hart’s yatch?
Monkey Business?
Well said, TommyD!
Probably doubled up on his mascara and eye shadow as well.
LOL!
The guards at Abu Gurab were abusive. John McCain was tortured.
Criminals are sent to Jail. Soldiers become a prisoner of war. Only the Communists and you seem to think he was a criminal in jail.
Wrong! The real domestic enemy are posters like yourself who use obscene language towards other posters! A pox on you, scumbag!
Just now calling downtown
Let's see who's stock tanks faster, NY Slimes or McCain's.
What I meant by my post is that perhaps others (Hill?) has more to gain by this story hitting now in terms of Independents picking JM over her.
Your insight is entirely possible as well. Politics is the art of who is getting hurt, by who and who benefits from the smack down.

“Did you read the story? It only says there may have been some concern of an appearance of impropriety. No one substantiates an affair. If the NYT really wanted to destroy McCain they would have saved this for October. Now there is plenty of time to refute it.”
You are correct. This a whole lot of smoke and no fire. It’s just the NYT and the MSM trying to influence the outcome now that Hillary is toast.
Exactly.
The really funny part- there is no story! It’s the hype of the story- the story was already on Drudge 2 months ago..and there’s no news in tonight’s piece.
Sometimes I think we’re being tested to see how far we’ll fall- can a story be manufactured out of tidbits from the past that aren’t important or significant- and we be manipulated into behaving as if there was a story..
Darn.
Her Mail Box is full.
Hmmmm, now I am wondering......
Nah.
“...Both said Mr. McCain acknowledged behaving inappropriately and pledged to keep his distance from Ms. Iseman. “
All heresay but it is the slimes you know. What the drivebys love.
I just received 2 emails from convervative McCain haters. They are going to vote for McCain now, one states they will also send money.
**The NYSlimes has accomplished what even Obama and Hillary couldn’t do - rally conservatives to McCain - lmao.
“Theres probably nothing to it but if there is, why now? Its way too early.”
Because someone else was going to do it first.
Too much coffee today?
