A few thoughts from your Cardinal on Le Affair McCain. . .
1.) A 71 year old man . . . A 40 year old slinky blonde. I'm French. What's the big deal?
2.) McCain should thank the New York Times. The age issue is now gone.
3.) No allegation of corruption, no favors, both sides deny an affair. Why is this even a story, and why is the timing so partisan?
4.) Now that the matter of staff being worried about the perception of improper appearances between candidates and snazzy women is enough to spark a front page New York Times story, will the Times be soon publishing an exhaustive 11-part series on former President Bill Clinton? Just wondering . . .
5.) The Big Winner in all this? Obama. Hillary's last ditch Pantsuit and Bayonet charge now blown out of media for 72 hours.
6.) Biggest Loser? The New York Times. Embarrassing nothing-burger. Shame on them.
