Why is this even news?

[XemaSab]

We know he cheated on his first wife with Cindy.

Why is cheating on Cindy such a big deal?

I don't think this is his political obituary by a longshot.

1. who woulda thunk the old bastard was such a

bad boy :spank:

:rofl:

[seemslikeadream]

a very bad boy, a very nasty bad boy

[CatWoman]

16. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!

[Bicoastal]

2. The RW looks like hypocrites endorsing him...especially after reminding everyone

how much they hate the Clintons!

[Olney Blue]

3. He put himself on a white horse, so to speak.

[Kutjara]

4. The GOP brass are probably sighing with relief...

...that McCain had his affair with an adult. He is a Republican, after all.

[XemaSab]

10. And a woman no less.

Such a boy scout. :eyes:

[Justitia]

13. Yeah, but Mitt Romney is kicking himself in the ass!!!!! ROFL! -eom

[Wickerman]

5. I think the issue is more about being involved with a lobbyist

If he were actually "in bed" with her that would just be gross. It's the ethics issue - of which he repeatedly has had problems.

But, point taken, we know he's a sleaze.

[XemaSab]

18. Read the New York times article

Good times. :D

[AlCzervik]

19. exactly, plus railing against lobbyist while possible having an affair with one, the irony.

[TwilightGardener]

6. This is also impropriety in relation to lobbyist activities.

[Stinky The Clown]

7. His relationship with the religiously and morally insane among his 'base' is, at best, tenuous

This could cause them to turn away again, just as they were starting to more or less accept him ..... resignedly.

[Windy]

8. Hes running as a republican. the moral "authority" It will hurt him.

I think, as others have here, that the right wing rethugs outed him.

[AzDar]

9. Because SOMEONE is boinking John McCain. That is wretched...

:puke:

[indie_voter]

11. I was wondering the same thing? n/t

[Justitia]

12. Turns out Mr. Lobbyists Are Evil, is Mr. I Screw Young Lobbyists & Grant Them Favors.

Fucking for Favors by John McCain

[Virginia Dare]

14. We don't know all the juicy details yet, do we?

It may not be his obituary, but I think he might just have received a terminal diagnosis.

[billyoc]

15. It has blondes and a penis, what else can you ask for in a news story?!

:rofl:

[sandnsea]

17. Can't figure out who this benefits

Very peculiar timing, I don't understand why anybody would want this in the news right now.

[shireen]

20. i don't care

about McCain's sex life.

the amount of attention it's getting on DU is baffling.


:shrug:

[bklyncowgirl]

21. Yeah lots of politicians are in bed with lobbyists--she is cuter than Jack Abramoff

It does sound like Straight Talk Johnny's got some explaining to do and Mike Huckabee must believe that he has found proof that miracles do happen.
