The Republicans tried to kill the investigation because it became inconvenient for the national party. John McCain tainted it with presidential politics. Did he somehow think that selecting a VP candidate with an active ethics investigation wouldn't arouse scrutiny? And that one that was supposed to produce a report right before the election might make it even more awkward timing? Jesus, how many fucking idiots are involved here? The investigation helped out the McCain/Palin campaign by releasing the report early. Originally it was supposed to be produced days before the election, but they didn't want that timing to influence things. A lot of thanks they got. > The "investigators" are lucky they live in the US.

Nice point you have there.
