McCain Gettin' Some?

NY Times (linky) has written a story about a possible John McCain sex scandal. Republican leadership has sighed because it actually involves an adult female woman and (so far) no bathrooms.

The boiled down version of the story:
When Senator John McCain’s first ran for the White House he almost got nailed for (possibly) being too close to the lobbyist. One in particular.

A female lobbyist had been turning up like a groopie with him at fund-raisers, visiting his offices and accompanying him on a client’s corporate jet. Convinced the relationship had become er, more than just friends, some of his top advisers intervened to protect the candidate from himself — instructing staff members to cock block her.

When The News reported that McCain had written several letters to government regulators on behalf of the lobbyist’s client, some thought this was going to pop.

McCain, 71, and the lobbyist, Vicki Iseman, 40, both say they never had a romantic relationship. But to his advisers, even the appearance of a close bond with a lobbyist whose clients often had business before the Senate committee Mr. McCain led threatened the story of redemption and rectitude that defined his political identity.

So this is the classic get the Senator to fall in love with the hot babe, she's really a femme fetal - and she's been taking pictures for her bosses to hold over his head if he doesn't vote their way. Hasn't that plot line been played out already?

And just a reminder for you youngsters reading along, McCain was one of the Keating Five. So Sen. McCain has a bit of a history playing the field when he wasn't supposed to.

Well this all just got a lot more fun! Huckabee's still in it, right?

I don't know what's more frightening....this geezer throwing one into that hot cougar or Gene Simmons throwing it into the chick on his "alleged" sex tape.

What confuses me is that he is doing someone who looks just like his wife. That doesn't make a lot of sense to me, if you're going to cheat shouldn't you mix it up a bit?

Did she keep him in a cage like his days in Vietnam, maybe poke that old coot with a stick?
