huffingtonpost.com — 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.

This is precisely the kind of crooked maneuver you would expect from a dishonest man.Hide your dirty financial dealings among your wealthy wife's finances, so that you can still plausibly deny that you haven't been involved in business dealings with Keating. And yet, you directly benefit from such dealings through your wife.That's a good enough reason to say that the Keating episode isn't such old news after all. He expressed contrition for his involvement at the time, transformed his image into a reformer and maverick... and meanwhile his immediate family continues merryily along dealing with Keating for another 11 years.Where is the honesty in that?

Not really a surprise, the McCains have profits from their association with Keating and they dare to be critics of Obama? There should be an end to this corruption soon.

I wonder how much dirty money you'd find if you started looking through all of McCain's family and relatives. I wonder the same thing about Ted Stevens. It's bad enough they get cozy jobs at oil-corp fronts with people like Palin. There really should be another level of disclosure. Sounds more and more like Dubya having family friends and actual Arabs bailing him out of mistakes.

John is always hiding behind some woman's skirt. His wife for his finances and Palin for his politics.
