"Two-Timing John McCain's Sizzling Secret Sex Life"!

From the Department of I-paid-the-$3.29-so-you-don't-have-to, I just shelled out precious fiat currency to see what new dirt The Globe has on Sen. McFrontrunner's sexy-time activities. Answer? Bugger-all.

McCain dated strippers and heiresses! Ditched his first wife after she'd been disfigured in a car wreck, and replaced her with a young hottie with a fat bank account! Admitted "the blame was entirely mine"! All these and more you can find ... in McCain's own books. Plus countless interviews he's given.

The best The Globe can do to advance the ball is this quote from "a political insider":

As a young pilot in the early '60s, the house he rented was notorious as a place for raucous sex parties.

OH NOEZ! And then there's this:

Still, one Internet poster rips the presidential candidate, saying, "McCain cheated on his first wife, why wouldn't he cheat on his second?"

That all you got, tabs? I remember back when the supermarket gossip rags at least delivered some goddamned gossip.

Damn, dude. It's almost like you want President Obama/Chavez.

I would assume you posted the following comment at The Globe's website:

"pics plz"

After all, you did pay good (fiat) money.

Sage -- Nothing about his alleged sexcapades makes me want to vote for John McCain any less.

Also, he's a lot better on trade than the Democrats!

I wouldn't want the possibility that I caused people to think about John McCain naked on MY conscience, Matt.

My history.
First wife - Did, not proud of it.
Second wife - Was never even tempted.

McCain may be similar. Besides, it's none of my damned business.

Isn't it? You don't care what kind of person he is? I do. And anything I wish to think about I consider to be my damned business. One of the reasons I detested Blow Job Clinton so much was that he was such a dishonest sleaze (another was that he was an arrogant, dishonest sleaze.)

What? No equal coverage of Ms. Clinton's sexcapades.
Mistress Hillary. In black vinyl. Whipping Mccains pasty white wrinkled ass?

Dear Matt,

I haven't had a chance to check out the book yet, but there better be some mention of the POW/MIA Issue in it. If not, you need to add a chapter.

Put another way, if the POW/MIA Families don't like McCain, what does that say about John McCain?

Thanks!

McCain dated strippers

Good for him, says I.

Matt Welch | March 4, 2008, 7:19pm | #

POW Warrior -- Indeed I did devote a chapter to "Healing Vietnam," and McCain's under-explored role in "putting the POW/MIA issue behind us," etc.

Ditto. Am not even tempted to be tempted.

I too was a young pilot in the '60s, and the place we rented was notorious for raucous sex parties... unfortunately for me I was quiet and retiring. I didn't get any until at least the 4th or 5th party.

OMG!!! Somebody who was around in the 60s did stuff of which the religious right would not approve!! Shocking!

Seriously, though, this makes me like McCain more, not less.

Legate Damar | March 5, 2008, 9:26am | #

Nothing sbout McCain makes me like him more. It's like trying to add 2 to negative infinity.

How soon we forget. "Early '60s" = No internet, primitive instant still photos, no personal digital photos/videos of any kind.

And Mama didn't save that kind of picture in the baby album!
