Hey, I now think that McCain going to win. It helped Clinton.
Sorry, for the first one.
Another angle to consider here is that this story will be used as a lead-in to rehash McCain's real affair while they have everyone's attention. The truth is bad enough - McCain was still married and living with his first wife in 1979 while bumping uglies with a then 25-year-old Cindy. McCain later divorced his first wife (who had remained faithful and raised their three children while he was imprisoned in Vietnam), married Cindy, and then launched his political career. This got a little play in 2000 during the Republican primaries, but not much. I doubt his affair will become a persistent theme this time, but it could happen.
You mean the guy who gracefully stepped back for the good of the Party? Bump !
I'm sure there is plenty more for saved October. The NYT just waited until Romney, a moral man and a terrific executive, was safely out of the way.
I agree. If this is all they’ve got, this is not a big deal. Sure made Keith Olbermann hyperventilate, though. (What a surprise!)
FWIW, I don't think so. GOP can still nominate someone else...
Rudy and Mitt were given the most time early in the debates because as you may recall, they were the front runners, and no one else was even close.
McCain is actually the first choice of the MSM. The MSM also pushed Huckabee to the top. McCain and Obama were hand chosen by George Soros. The real question is why do you want to allow Soros to pick the next president?
Would I be surprised? No. Does it matter in 2008's election? No.
Only DemonRats. Republicans are still fair game if they think with the wrong head.
I was thinking along the same lines. They can’t go after Obama unless it looks like they go after “everybody” (well, almost).
The NYT’s story.
Thought so.
And the best headline so far of the night:
“Clinton the real loser in McCain Lobbyist Scandal”

Just gotta laugh. It’s always about the Clintons!
Because they are no sources, but if you want to believe what you read in the NYTs be my guest.
The NYTimes strikes again. They help pick a candidate in the primary, and now they get to destroy him. Motherf***ers.
Yup.
Nice try, but President Bush would never.
NY Times has way too much power.
