McCain And His Women

Did John McCain have a sexual affair with an intern named Vicki Iseman? McCain refuses to deny such an encounter. His team offered this carefully-worded response:
He has never violated the public trust, never done favors for special interests or lobbyists, and he will not allow a smear campaign to distract from the issues at stake in this election.
Translated... Yes, but he refuses to deny it, because that would make him a liar like Bill Clinton.

We are told that McCain did cheat on his first wife with the(very rich) woman he's married to now.

Do you recall the last time this man ran for president he was accused of fathering a black child in another one of those sordid little affairs? He refused to deny or discuss that also.

Clinton's famous words:
I did not have sex with that woman.
That was a bald-faced lie from yet another Washington skirt chaser, so even if McCain does deny it all, what is there in his less-than-sterling past conduct to make us believe him?

Seems to me that one of the "issues at stake in this election" is whether or not this man is a womanizing adulterer who has violated his marriage vows repeatedly, and if violating vows he has taken is a ho-hum everyday occurance to him, sort of like the oath of office we would need to take?

That's the real issue his reported womanizing brings up... could we ever believe him or trust him to honor his oath of office he will have to take as president?

Keep in mind this man is no hero. He signed confessions and statements accusing the United States of all manner of vile deeds, papers the North vietnamese still have. A hero would have resisted, just like the other pilots in his identical situation did.

I think we already know the answer.
