Speaking Of McCain.. And Lobbyists

Just where does Vicki Iseman fit in?

She pops up in a post-911 gig involving McCain, Saudi big-wig Las Vega playboys, and a possible "relationship".

The "tricked out" 727 figures in the current tempest over his relationship with female lobbyist Vicki Iseman, who provided and flew with McCain on the plane.

Vicki Iseman is a partner in the lobbying firm Alcalde & Fay, a lobbying firm based in Arlington, Virginia. The firm consists of over 35 former politicians, public relations specialists, lawyers, journalists, and corporate executives. A team of Alcalde & Fay associates and a senior partner handles clients. The firm practices in all areas of legislative affairs, communications, and government marketing.

Hecctor Alcalde founded the firm in 1973 and still serves as the company’s Chairman. Alcalde’s partner, Kevin J. Fay, serves as the firm’s President and specializes in environmental and energy affairs. Fay is also currently the Executive Director of the International Climate Change Partnership.

Oooooo... Executive Director of the International Climate Change Partnership... that may explain McCain's upside-down views on climate change.

From the New York Times:

For McCain, Self-Confidence on Ethics Poses Its Own Risk (February 20, 2008)

"Convinced the relationship had become romantic, some of his top advisers intervened to protect the candidate from himself — instructing staff members to block the woman’s access, privately warning her away and repeatedly confronting him, several people involved in the campaign said on the condition of anonymity."

The more you dig into this lobbyist stuff, the worse the stench surrounding McCain.
