Gosh and can you tell me exactly what McCain was running for in 2010 then The fact is that articles does not in any way shape manner or form make any claim that the McCain campaign made any false accusations and in fact does not mention that campaign at all Or did you think that 2010 was a presidential election year The NYT article clearly ascribed the accusations to a specific year 2006 and said the issue was arising again in 2010 Last I checked the presidential election with McCain was in 2008 YMMV Cheers
