My guess would be that this is just a taste of what is to come when he officially becomes the “nominee.”

Nah, just makes it easier for a Democrat to vote for him.

“Analysis” = Let’s try to keep this going and give it more impact than the Times story had.

Campaigning in Texas, Democrat Barack Obama declined to comment on the story.

"At no time have I ever done anything that would betray the public trust" McCain does not consider the state of his fidelity to his wife to be part of the public trust.

Interesting that democrats are so identified with every sleazy angle, no revelation of their wrongdoing can have much significance.

obama’s shady real estate deals are not an issue, but this is.
figures. Also, the words ‘Keating 5’ were brought up today for the first time in over a decade on CNN.

"I'm very disappointed in the article," he told reporters. Lame choice of words. Very disappointed? What was he expecting from the NYT?

"
McCain does not consider the state of his fidelity to his wife to be part of the public trust." Obviously, his relationship with his wife does not involve any 'trust.'

Never mind that there is no evidence that McCain did anything wrong here - none. Now think about all the crap we know for a fact the Bill Clinton did - I do not recall the AP or anyone else in the news media being so terribly worried about his political viability at those moments. Translation: if a Democrat does it, he's "human". If a Republican is even accused of doing it (by the media), he's "guilty".

I can’t figure this one out.
McCain is the presumptive nominee but not there yet. If the intent of the Old Gray Whore is to take him out? Why print the article now?
Why not a few weeks ago before the primaries that garnered the delegates?
Why not in August or September when people are really paying attention.
Something is not right about all this.
