NY Times: Did John McCain Have an Affair? [SIRENED: Dirty Politics,Cleaned]

Translate Into:

John McCainThe NY Times just published an interesting story where they speculate that John McCain may have had an affair during his 2000 run for president. The article is entitled For McCain, Self-Confidence on Ethics Poses its Own Risk.

The lucky lady? Lobbyist Vicki Iseman (although she denies having an affair with McCain). Really? If she would just fess up despite whether it’s true or not, that would make for a fantastic book deal.

Apparently The NY Times (who endorsed John McCain in the republican primaries) squabbled internally about whether to run this story. They’ve held on to it for months and decided to pull the trigger because The New Republic knew they were arguing over their own story. So they feared The New Republic would do a story on their story that is based on stories? Good stuff.

By the way, what is John McCain’s illegitimate Vietnamese child up to these days?
