Ms. Iseman is a member of several Zionist organizations. It is rumoured that she blackmailed the Senator in taking a rabid pro Israel position. Jack Abramoff was another one as well, but he is safely in jail now.

There's no reason it couldn't be both. "Sure, we like McCain, but when push comes to shove, he's a fascist Republican. If we publish it too early, our guy might not get the nomination (and we'd get Mitt? eew!); now he's got it in the bag and we've got this juicy bit of gossip about the GOP nominee! Just can't resist any longer."

For the record, this strikes me as a pretty lame "bombshell." Moment of weakness, he did something stupid, he's learned from it, and moved on years ago. One could say the same things about Obama's youth drug use.

Honestly, I think this is a non=issue. As a Democrat I would never support McCain, but who cares what he did in the 90's? Clearly, Democrats no longer care about the 90's either and as a supporter of Senator Clinton, it's not easy for me to say this.

no, i don't care either, but republicans have made it entirely clear that they believe our politician's sex lives are at least as important as their professional lives, so let's see how they handle the possibility of mccain's indiscretions. bill clinton isn't even running, and we still hear endless amounts of crap about his past. yea, i'm still bitter. enjoy, gop.

The way I see it, the farther right McCain moves and the more he is embraced by his conservative base, the better for Obama. Because if the moderates and independents see that the right is embracing McCain and then look at his record on Iraq, the less they will view him as the "maverick" and the moderate that he really isn't. So I applaud the right wingers jumping to McCain's defense. It only hurts him in the general election.
