Early in Senator John McCains first run for the White House eight years ago, waves of anxiety swept through his small circle of advisers.
A female lobbyist had been turning up with him at fund-raisers, in his offices and aboard a clients corporate jet. Convinced the relationship had become romantic, some of his top advisers intervened to protect the candidate from himself instructing staff members to block the womans access, privately warning her away and repeatedly confronting him, several people involved in the campaign said on the condition of anonymity.
When news organizations reported that Mr. McCain had written letters to government regulators on behalf of the lobbyists clients, the former campaign associates said, some aides feared for a time that attention would fall on her involvement.
Mr. McCain, 71, and the lobbyist, Vicki Iseman, 40, both say they never had a romantic relationship.
Keep dreaming, jveritas...It’s having a HUGE effect!!
High Infidelity What if three admitted adulterers run for president and no one cares?
Past is prologue....?
Nah.
The Biggest story is Hill’o’Bama and the Dem’s mud wrestling.
This will be snoozing by the weekend.
This could be a preemptive attack because the NYT’s knows that Obama did smoke crack and have gay sex.
They made him out to be a tortoise!!! Jeez!!!
Temptation is not a sin!
;-)
Do the exclamation points make it even more not completely???
I thought the NY Times liked McCain. Didn’t they just endorse him? Maybe this hit will make McCain pick a big fight with these liberals.
The story is communist propaganda.
No, just a big dose of BS, but delivered with panache.
oops, wrong thead.
Poor MeCain.
Which one...?
Hey, I now thing that McCain going yo win. It helped Clinton.
...because he (McAmnesty) is scared crapless that this is “the end”, that’s why, but why a lawyer?? Why not a PR firm?
In your dreams. This lie is going to backlash very badly on the New York Times.
Absolutely!!
Be careful. Seeing both of these fools at the same time could result in a spontaneous psycho-motor event, resulting in the nearest heavy object being accelerated into your video viewer.
Since when is cheatin,’ Communist propaganda? Men all over the US will be using that excuse! LOL
I’m curious why McCain “pleaded” with the NY Times to suspend the article? Doesn’t sound like the maverick I know? Maybe this is just an elaborate liberal trap to smoke him out?
