Several investigative reporters from the New York Times have been working on uncovering a possible extra-martial affair that John McCain had with a woman 31 years his junior 8 years ago when he first ran for President back in 2000.
They have unearthed a wealth of evidence pointing to a possible romantic relationship between the two that took place back then.
Should this matter? Are ethics and morality especially relevant in light of McCain's history of fighting for ethics reform? Must a President be faithful to his spouse, in order for the country to trust him to be faithful to the American people?? What about Clinton's affairs? What about ones that we now know that Presidents Kennedy, Eisenhower, and Franklin Roosevelt all had??
Here is a link to the NY Times investigative report, and the evidence they have discovered:
