McCain-skandaali nousemassa

Jopa New York Times julkaisi artikkelin joka heittää epäilyksiä McCainin suhteen. Mies on mahdollisesti pelehtinyt lobbausjärjestön kaunottaren kanssa ja on joutumassa ahtaalle.

The Times reports that McCain denied allegations of a romantic relationship, and he "declined repeated interview requests, beginning in December. He also would not comment about the assertions that he had been confronted about Ms. Iseman." The article raises several other allegations about McCain's acceptance of corporate favors, private jet rides, corporate contributions, and conflicts of interests with companies that he oversaw as a U.S. Senator
