Of course, this is the downside to picking someone who has never run a national campaign — you just don’t know what is going to surface, and what the media will make of it.
Oh wait — it’s more serious. You KNOW the media will pretend anything they find is serious. So what you needed was a candidate who already went through this once, when the media didn’t know they were supposed to attack them, so that the media was constrained from bringing back old news and saying it mattered.
SO while this story really doesn’t matter, it’s proximity to the election DOES matter. If this had been national news in January, it would have blown over already.
It would seem that our FRiend steve-b has done a post and run. Not one reply that I can find....

How is it that some guy on the Internet can figure this out, and John McCain and his staff can't?
