This is spot on, and it's from a Conservative.

McCain has had integrity issues for a long time. Check out the Keating Five, one of whom was McCain. I have lived in Arizona for 28 years and have watched him change from trying to be a maverick to doing anything the religious right asks of him.

He was cleared of any wrong doing with the Keating 5 case.....while others investigated went to jail.

so not a terrorist association. just associated with someone that bilks old people out of their life savings. and that's okay but ...

BTW the truth is: i didn't have a problem with McCain's integrity until his dirty campaign ads. but if people want to continue to bash Obama over meaningless past associations, I'll go there. can't have it both ways.

I am from Arizona too and I would NEVER vote for McCain. I live in GA (because of the military) and I have a AZ bumper sticker, a Sun Devils bumper stick, and then my Obama sticker. If

Since Karl Rove isn't working for the Mc Cain campaign that is at least one claim you made that is incorrect.

Your allegations need to be referenced with place and time not just you said it happened. Please provide these facts to go along with your claims.

"In a May 7 Washington Post online chat with Karl Rove, the news organization correctly introduced the pundit as an "informal advisor to the McCain campaign." The Post's media reporter, Howard Kurtz, has also endorsed disclosing that Rove is a "maxed-out donor" to McCain.There's no evidence that Rove has a formal role with the McCain campaign. However, it is hard to deny that he has an active, if informal relationship.

For example, the consulting firm he currently heads has been disseminating 2008 electoral map projections to influential media outlets and party operatives. In late March, McCain media advisor Mark McKinnon participated in a public conversation about the campaign with former Bush strategist Matthew Dowd. During the talk, McKinnon displayed maps analyzing the states and their electoral votes; the maps bore the header "Karl Rove & Co." At the end of April, the Washington Times reported that such maps were compiled weekly by Karl Rove & Co., based on the latest state polls. In addition to McKinnon and the Washington Times, the maps have made their way into the hands of Fox News' own Chris Wallace."

So it appears Rove is working for McCain although he is not been publicly identified. That makes the assertion conceptually correct. what is your proof that he is not?

"Well take a look at this collection of Dems remarks and see who said what about that!!! "
In every instance they seemed to be talking hypothetical. That's not the same thing as saying he has nukes and we should break international law, ignore our allies, and invade it.
