McCain's ethical lapses . . .

I love the following McCain quote per the hated NYTimes article, which seems to be true btw. . . .

In the early '80s McCain was beginning his political career and needed a financier. He found that in Mr. Keating, a "man of great confidence and daring," McCain said:

“People like that appeal to me,” [McCain] continued. “I have sometimes forgotten that wisdom and a strong sense of public responsibility are much more admirable qualities.”

You'd think a wise, responsible person (McCain) wouldn't forget that wisdom and responsibility are more admirable than reckless, ultimately scandalous ambition. But shucks, we're all fallible, right? McCain's honesty + repentance = spiritual orgasm.
