Lobbyist Vicki Iseman is caught up in a scandal involving Republican presidential candidate John McCain.

Both John McCain and Vicki Iseman deny they ever had a romantic relationship.

From the NY Times:

"Early in Senator John McCain’s first run for the White House eight years ago, waves of anxiety swept through his small circle of advisers....

Let the games begin!!! The original accusation is in New York Times, and Keith Olbermann is drooling over the possibilities.

I’ll bet it’s not true.

Hey, who cares? Its just sex. So he has a healthy sexual appetite. Isn’t that what they said about Beel and Monica?

If the MSM wants to take out McCain this early - and give us a chance to choose a better candidate - I’m all for it. I’m reminded of Trent Lott getting hung out to dry over his Thurmond birthday comments.

We all knew this was coming....going to be a bumpy ride until November.

Didn't take much time for the "adoring media" to whip out the long knives for ol' Juan McAmnesty.

John McCain must have been making inroads against St. Obama if the NY Times felt the need to run this story... BTW, is this the story that has been percelating since NH??? Wouldn’t it have been better for NY Times to wait until October??

A little old to be poking holes in his staff, ain’t he?

this shows what a fool McCain is. anyone with a functioning brain knew the MSM would turn on him once he no longer served their purpose.

It’s such “old news”. The fun will be seeing how McCain handles it. Maybe the old guy will smile with pride at the suggestion he’s still a stud, or was when this accusation was originally made.

Keith Olbermann on MSNBC is making this out to be serious trouble for McCain, his guests wondering what Rush will have to say about this tomorrow.

I’m LOL wondering how Hillary will use it against McCain. Dare she even mention?

Now that would be really sweet!!! It would even be worth having to endure the media continuously conjuring up the image of a nude McCain doing the beast with two backs if it gave us a chance to throw him overboard in favor of something better.

[babble-on]

It wasn’t his staffer, just a lobbyist, and since McCain is not corruptible, how could it matter... whoops. Oh well, at least he and Charlie Keating never had sex.

Honey ... this is how it is using it.

Personally ... I think it is just invented drama by the x42's

Hmmmmmm

[weegee]

It’s just sex. How is this anything the Clintons can use to taint the election?

It’s like Hillary trying to complain about Obama’s cocaine abuse when her own husband toots.

[Accygirl]

It’s from 1999...So basically the insinuation is that he may have been too “friendly” with a Washington telecom. lobbyist nine years ago??

I’m still going to vote for Alan Keyes in Texas. He’s twice as black as Obama and has better political ideas than anyone else on my ballot.
