Washington Independent:

Sen. John McCain's wife and father-in-law continued a lucrative business partnership with disgraced financier Charles H. Keating Jr. for 11 years after the GOP presidential nominee said he ended his close friendship with Keating in March 1987.

Cindy McCain's business partnership with Keating in a real-estate development between 1986 and 1998 netted her a tidy profit, in addition to years of significant tax benefits. Her father, who died in 2000, earned similar returns.

I heard that a group of wolves just chartered a helicopter to go P.alin hunting.

On the day I was born, the nurses all gathered 'round
And they gazed in wide wonder, at the joy they had found
The head nurse spoke up, and she said leave this one alone
She could tell right away, that I was bad to the bone
Bad to the bone, yes, I'm bad to the bone!

When Cindy McCain said that Obama had run the "dirtiest" campaign ever, what she meant was "How dare that dirty filthy man bring up these things! Doesn't he know who WE are!?!!!"

Let's see... we can can have either Michelle Obama or Cindy McCain as our First Lady for the next four years.

Hmm. Which to choose? Which to choose?

I think I am going to have to go with the intelligent, classy, good mother instead of the silver-spooned, self-indulgent, socialite..

And I would go with the one who gives so much to charity and working in third world countries helping children not the one who was never proud to be an American.

And I will vote (along with about 80 % of Americans on election day) with the natural leader and the classy woman, not the "DON'T YOU KNOW WHO i AM?" temper tantrum throwing Washington insider and his "I only stole drugs from my own foundation -- drugs that I said were going to third world clinics -- because I'm addicted to them" wife.

Giving personal time to work with Americans is much more impressive than going into third world countries with big diamonds and gold jewelry for an obvious photo op. How do you know how much money was donated to charity if a tax return is not made available.

We know Michelle Obama will not curse out Capitol police if she doesn't get her way.

And I would go with the one who doesn't pal around with crooks and ethics abusers - the number of whom just went up.

pupbayer, you forgot to mentionned that cindy use her charity work outside of USA as a proxy for her drug addiction which she STOLE from the same charity organisation she was representing.

get your facts..it's on record..cindy confirm this to be true and was sent to rehab instead of Prison. If you do the same, I bet you, the mccainS will ensure you end up in Prison and not a rehab..

it is up to you to vote for any one you wish... but please vote for what would improve the quality of your life and others and not the pocket of politicians who will definately forget about your struggle once they are in Office.
USED YOUR BRAIN...YOUR VOTE IS ALL YOU'VE GOT. USE IT TO SAVE OUR ECONOMY, SAVE OUR TROOPS, HELP THE AGED, HELP OUR FAILLING EDUCATION SYSTEM.EVERY ASPECT OF DAILY LIVES IS BROKEN..AND DO YOU THINK PUTTING TWO CLEARLY UNINTELLIGENT DUO WILL FIX THAT????. THINK! AND VOTE OBAMABIDDEN THE TWO MOST INTELLIGENT.

I'm sorry, but I feel sorry for Cindy McCain. Even obscenely rich people can live lives of utter misery, hence the history of substance abuse. With all the talk of John McCain having a volatile temper, and with the report of those vile comments he made directly to her, I don't think it's a stretch to conclude that there's a good chance the woman is emotionally abused.

Unless Johnny threatened her with violence if she didn't start stumping for him, I don't feel one bit sorry for her.
Perhaps if,after McCain loses,she divorces him and writes a book about life with McCain was a living Hell for her,I might change my mind...

I think their relationship is rather creepy. She adopts a child without his knowledge and she takes flying lessons and buys a plane without his knowledge? Who keeps this kind of information from their spouse?

I find it interesting that she didn't trust him enough to make him sign a prenup. She wouldn't trust him with millions and people want to trust him with TRILLIONS?! "Not on my watch!"

BTW, great picture of Cindy. Looks like someone has a hand up her skirt.

Someone had mentioned the WaPo story on Cindy's drug problem. This a link to the investigative article from the Phoenix New Times from 1994.
