[...] McCain and Keating: ‘Till Death do us Part’ [...]
Sonoran Alliance paid for by JD Hayworth 2010.
Sad that McCain is so powerful he is able to avoid real consequences for his actions. He should have resigned, or at least not run for reelection. Must be nice taking your family on luxury junkets to the Bahamas paid for by one of the richest bank owners in the country, and all you have to do is interfere with federal regulators on his behalf, using your power as a Senator. Yep, he’s been in office way too long and has accumulated so much power he’s now immune to repercussions. Time for McCain to retire.
VSB – If you can read, you’ll notice this article came from the Washington Times and American Post-Gazette, not Sonoran Alliance.
Wow, Keating helped McCain get $166,000 total in donations over 3 campaigns?
That’s just a little more than Hayworth paid his wife for being the sole member of his politcal PAC.
Mudslinging is a messy business.
That’s the problem isn’t it? “People who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.”
McCain’s campaign was first out of the gate hot with “cozy with lobbyist,” so why should they be all surprised and annoyed that McCain’s very vunerable on this “cozying with lobbyists” complaint? Should have stayed away from it, stuck to the issues and stayed positive.
WHat discerning voters want to know is did McCain make a mistake earlier in his career, associating too much with someone who turned out to be too good to be true? Did he learn his lesson and learn to stay away from similar traps? Was it an one time occurance or a part of a pattern? The same analysis can be employed to consider JD Hayworth and his political career.
Wanumba:
Yep!
And ole gofer, er Travis, was first out of the box regaling us regarding a friend of Jack Abramoff!
It just shows ya what one has to do to refloat and find a deckchair on a sinking Establishment ship!
Career politicians and their shills just can’t seem to be able to stop themselves from picking up buckets of crap to throw at each other and then they wonder why the voters think poorly of them when they stand there covered in the work of their efforts. The tit for tat mudslnging has to make you wonder if there are any adults around.
Keating Five alone blows a gapping whole in the bow of John’s anti-pork scooner. He’d be doing us a favor if he switched to the pork-barrel game. As it is, his shtick on Capital Hill costs taxpayers far more. If remuneration from Keating only amounted to $166,000 that would be nice. Far from it. Add another $180,000 plus for private resort vacations and private jets.
More importantly, what about roughly $200 million that elderly people lost because of McCain’s interference? Don’t forget the $3 billion tab that taxpayers had to pick up afterward. Every $1,000 McCain gets in payoffs costs $billions and loss of rights and freedoms for taxpayers. Never again will I vote for John McCain–he’s a climate-gate, bank bailout, big-pharma, amnesty liability we can’t afford.
John Mccain did some good things but it’s time for him to retire. He is too moderate and too anxious to work with the other side. Didn’t Kerry in 2004 consider him for his VP running mate? That should tell you all you need to know. He dosn’t have a problem with illegals getting benefits and he wants to treat terrorists nice. He is weak on the 2′nd ammendment also. We need JD

LOL! The American Post-Gazette basically is Sonoran Alliance. Same circle…

……..
A conservative circle. So why the surprise? If you want liberal Left progressive talk, go to KOS or HUffPO or NYT, WaPO, CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNABC etc etc ad nauseaum.
Some of us were talking about this 2 years ago when Senator McCain was making a run to be the GOP candidate for the big house on Pennsylvania Avenue.
The conservatives who love to hate the Senator today ignored all of this stuff during that race. Wonder why?
“A conservative circle. So why the surprise? If you want liberal Left progressive talk, go to KOS or HUffPO or NYT, WaPO, CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNABC etc etc ad nauseaum.”
LOL! I didn’t say a conservative circle. It’s a very small circle of political lackeys. They are lackeys first and “conservatives” somewhere much further down the list.
The “American Post-Gazette” is written by the same exact same people that write the other posts on Sonoran Alliance.
Also, if these guys are sooo conservative and are a counterweight to to liberal progressive left talk, why are they pulling stuff from Wikipedia quoting the liberal Phoenix New Times (from an article from probably its most leftist liberal period in the late 80′s no less)and the progressives at Common Cause? LOL!
“The Mark of McCain,” an interesting read, describes how McCain spearheaded the legislation which set the stage for awarding Miranda rights to enemy combatants. http://article.nationalreview.com/429488/the-mark-of-mccain/andrew-c-mccarthy
@comment 12. It’s very likely that true conservatives were too busy holding their noses in 2008 to rehash the failed logic in GOP candidate John McCain.
Just how desperate are you guys? 1986? Really? OK. Do you realize how stupid you all seem? Trying to make something stick NOW, when the voters know the real truth (opposed to your spin) and continue to re-elect Senator McCain anyway? He has admitted his wrong doing, his poor judgment, and has certainly proven himself.
JD refuses to admit his wrongdoing, makes excuses or blames others and can hardly be optimized as rising above it.
JD never met a mirror, a camera, a microphone, or a dollar he didn’t like…and will do “whatever it takes” to keep them coming.
Once again, nice try at a distraction from the reality that Sen. McCain is front and center in the fight against Obama and the radical left. Trying to convince folks that Sen. McCain is not the man for the job will take more than an old news story pasted in various order to do JD’s bidding….
That is all it is. Just one more try to make JD look better by making someone else look bad. Ain’t gonna happen.
Who is really thrilled about either candidate? We’d swap one annoying insider for another. One lobbyist lackey for another. And any one of us would expect a different result than what we’ve gotten from these guys in the past? Is this really indicative of the depth of the GOP bench in Arizona?
If you were trying to bolster JD Hayworth this was a very unwise post. If any readers actually take the time to research JD and Abramoff they will learn why JD lost his Congressional seat to a Democrat when most thought that was impossible to do with the numbers of Republican voters in that CD.
It is time to replace McCain. We just need a new Senator for new ideas. We do not need career Politicians. My vote is for JD.

………………
Oh, so this argument is that the statue of limitations ran out?
Better to have said nothing than that, and the “stupid” part is gratuitous annoying.
It goes right back to if McCain didn’t want to hear about his involvement in the Keating scandal, then he should have reconsidered the suggestion to use a particular tactic against his opponent – unless he was willing to take the totally predictable blow-back.
Hey, did anybody notice the date of the Washington Times blog post (it’s just the guys blog post not an actual Washington Times article)? It’s October 2008! This guy, Stephen Dinan, was trying to sink McCain during the height of the Presidential election. So these pro-Hayworth lackeys are apparently quoting not just the liberal New Times and the progressive Common Cause, but they are also turning to quoting Obamacons. So much for being consistant conservatives…lol
Blogs are not reliable news sources. Why is this website pretending to be an investigative reporting news source? It’s because they support JD and will find any scent in the air that discredits a war hero.
