McCain has left himself wide open to attack from the likes of Conason by hiring and surrounding himself with shady lobbyists, including his campaign manager, Rick Davis. McCain likes to think he is a media darling. He is about to quickly find out that he is nothing more than raw meat for the kill- A Stalking Horse for Obama. Way to go, GOP.

Conservatives are pissed at him?

no balls.

...by hiring and surrounding himself with shady lobbyists...
:::::
This is a surprise? Standard modus operandi for Washington. Now, compare this scenario (shady lobbyists) to the criminal slimeball Dims. The Clintons? Shady? — no outright treasonous and criminal. Major felons. And Obama’s background in Illinois politics and his background with terrorists, anti-Americans?

If I have to choose between three piles of crap, I will take the one that smells the least....

He never claimed to be the brightest bulb on the strand.

Lumps of coal all around!

[nmh]

This is nowhere near as dangerous as who OBAMA associates with. This is the media distracting from Obmam’s terrorists friends and friends going to prison. Pay no mind to it. They're just digging for dirt.

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

Oh yes, there will be much cannon fodder for the MSM, along with massive torpedoes to sink the not-so-good ship McHipocrite with by November.

What stupidity from the GOP to pick this loser in the first place!

[silverleaf]

Obama’s lobbyists for NARAL etc are not shady?

[rockrr]

At this point I wonder if McCain has any toes left after shooting himself so many times.

Pathetic...

[Cicero]

He’s damned if he does and damned if he doesn’t. There ain’t no such thing as a successful political campaign without lobbyists, and there are few, if any, political pros competent to run a campaign who haven’t been lobbyists at one time or another.

Obama’s campaign is doubtless stuffed with lobbyists, mobsters, and terrorist sympathizers, but the MSM is unlikely to mention the issue.

McCain has made himself extremely vulnerable by ever raising this issue—which of course was central to his PR for McCain-Feingold and central to his contention that he’s an honest politician. (The Keating Five was an aberration, no doubt. But I expect we’ll be hearing all about it as the election approaches.)

Ha. He’s screwed both ways.

[goodnesswins]

Hmmmm.....LOBBYISTS vs. TERRORISTS......Hmmmmm......what to think.....

[onedoug]

What about that Hernandez character? ‘Bet he’s still on board.

[lexusppd]

Shady lobbyists? I thought McCain was ridding his campaign of CURRENT lobbyists? He said he would have none on his campaign and if they leave he does not. I don't believe someone who worked in an earlier position as a lobbyist would have any impact at all for him. Besides, Obama has lobbyists raising money for him even if they aren't active directly in his campaign on a day to day basis. Looking at both candidates and their negatives, Osamabama has far, far more to worry about then does McCain. In fact the paucity have negatives the lib media has come up with against McCain is quite telling. First a supposed affair with a lobbyist, went nowhere, then his being born out of the country while his Dad was stationed overseas made him ineligible for the presidency (absurd) went nowhere, and finally the frantic attempt to equate the endorsements of 2 people with the endorsement of Wright to Obama will go nowhere because he was never a member of either Parish.

McCain's past is an open book, everything is known about him while Obama is STILL a blank page just waiting to be written on by the Rep and the 527's. Sure McCain will disavow the 527's and ask them to stop the negativity but as the saying goes you cannot put the toothpaste back in the tube. McCain by 10 points and 50+ EC votes

As I started to read I glanced up and saw the words “Joe Conason”.
That glance saved me a few minutes of reading utterly worthless, dishonest twaddle.

[Lancey Howard]

McCain’s biggest problem is his stupidity in believeing that he could fund a campaign with contributions from those diehard, grassroots activists, the “moderates”. I genuinely question the man’s competence.

Hey there little spoiled Johnny - when a maverick hits barbed wire it hurts doesn't it? Be prepared for more. Your past sins will haunt you. Boeing is one of the best companies in the world. They build an awesome array of military weapons for our fighting service members. You know like the ones you left in Viet Nam you POS. Be prepared for more as your precious friends in the media dump you like a date with active herpes.

Sincerely,

Mad

McCain represents the very worst of Republicanism. The press is sharpening their icepicks and brushing their fangs in preparation for a fall campaign of destroying him.

He will be portrayed as another Bush, as a corrupt old angry white male, and a deranged senior citizen who will die upon entering the Oval Office. His moderation and betrayals of the conservative base will earn him absolutely nothing.

[E. Cartman]

McCain likes to think he is a media darling. He is about to quickly find out that he is nothing more than raw meat for the kill- A Stalking Horse for Obama.

When the MSM have finished "mavericking" him, he'll be remembering his Viet Cong captors with tenderness and affection.

[Rastus]

Mr. Keating Five needs to fire himself.
