John McCain's No Good, Very Bad Day

When you are trying very hard to be a Moral Majority / Conservative candidate and sell yourself to people that are highly suspicious that you are not, in fact, a Moral Majority / Conservative candidate, it would be bad for even the stirrings of a sex scandal to crop up. But when you are the anti-Washington Maverick / Moral Majority / Conservative candidate, and said scandal is allegedly with a lobbyist? That is not good in a very special kind of way. The New York Times has the story, which every other outlet on the face of the earth is rightly calling a "bombshell."
