N.Y. Times Suggests Unproven Adultery by McCain -- Unlike Clinton

So The New York Times has released a story by a four-person investigative team alleging a potentially inappropriate relationship between Sen. John McCain, the apparent GOP nominee for president, and a lobbyist named Vicki Iseman, three decades his junior. There is no proof of an inappropriate romantic or sexual relationship, merely suspicions by staff members now said to be disgruntled. So why is the Times biting on this story? A look back at a few Clinton sex scandals suggests a different standard for Republicans and Democrats.

it's quite believable, given mccain's unpredictable mood swings, propensity for violent, aggressive outbursts, and diminished mental capacity due to age and war damage, for him to have lost facility for rational judgement and descended into moral terpitude

the fact that it was apparently several witnesses, in starkly different roles, to have testified to no less than the times, would lead any critical thinker and skeptic to at least give the story a certain amount of credibility

we really need to see how mccain responds to the allegations first

hopefully this will provide a clue, and lead to further investigation, and digging

I could care less if he has sex with an apple pie if he isn't hypocritical about it. I am concerned about how buddy, buddy he might be with the lobbists.

and that's the point. he always claims that he's not in the pocket of the lobbyists and interest groups and yet his highest levels of campaign staff are lobbyists and he's hob-nobbing with lobbyists. it's the hypocracy, not the sex.
