I think McCain got off easy on this one, the NYT held the story until it didn't matter to him. |

If this had come out a few months ago, then all hell would have broken loose and McCain wouldn't have had any chance of winning the Republican Nomination.
McCain = Today's Whiney SOB of liberty.

|
to take him down, even though the NYT clearly helped him with the timing. It's silly. However, I think there's more to the story--McCain's flat denials just upped the ante.

6. I have to call bullshit. |

The New York Times did this at a time when it would do the most damage to the republican party's chances of maintaining the oval office, while at the same time not looking like they held the story for too long.
