Even McCain admets it was one of the worst times of his life. Not that he was bought and paid for by Keating but that he was caught.

KARL’S RIGHT BEHIND YOU SWAMP RAT!!

And I will say it

Obama is guilty by association…and guilty as h-e-double hockey sticks

let’s review…whatever McCain’s involvement in the Keating 5…he has been one of the biggest reformers in Congress

Obama hasn’t done a single thing to reform Illinois politics

not one

and no, the b.s. they pulled last week doesn’t count

Obama immersed himself in the culture of corruption in Illinois

I know you guys are used to it…but believe me, it doesn’t have to be that way

You CAN take your government back
You CAN have real change and not just slogans

but you WON’T get it by voting for Obama

McCain used poor judgement in his associations, but it doesn't appear there was anything illegal and it wasn't that big a deal. I feel the same way about Obama's association with Tony Rezco. Obama has said he used poor judgement in that association. Pat, I agree with you on this.
