I think the sort of “special treatment” they’re talking about here is where you get a no-bid contract or a chunk of federal funding without having to leap through the usual hoops.
I just don’t get a “sex scandal” out of what’s been reported.
“I just don’t get a 'sex scandal' out of what’s been reported.”
At this point, it’s just speculation. But here’s the hint form Drudge’s report:
“The drama involves a woman lobbyist who may have helped to write key telecom legislation.
“The woman in question has retained counsel and strongly denies receiving any special treatment from McCain.”

Perhaps I have a dirty mind, I guess. When I hear a politician is accused of wrongdoing with a female lobbyist who also denies any ‘special treatment’, the first thing that pops into my mind is some sort of relationship or sex scandal. Also, hiring Clinton’s sex scandal lawyer is another tipoff.
Who knows...not I, but it does kind of seem to fit together to me. The part about them not wanting to report on it really was what brought the whole ‘secret sex scandal’ thing to mind in the first place.
