McCain’s Lobbyist
I’m sure everyone has seen or at least heard about this story in the New York Times today about John McCain’s relationship with a female lobbyist and his checkered history of ethics reform in the Senate.
The big news of this story, of course, are the specifics of McCain’s relationship with the lobbyist, which the story isn’t totally clear about. McCain and Vicki Iseman (the lobbyist) both deny having a romantic relationship, but the article mentions that McCain’s aides were afraid that they were.
The article’s lede mentions this (even though it’s not inverted pyramid because it’s a feature) but the article never really confirms it. I guess I would’ve like them to actually have confirmed what’s going on with this, but it’s still good that they mention it.
