Sen. John McCain secured millions in federal funds for a land acquisition program that provided a windfall for an Arizona developer whose executives were major campaign donors, public records show.

McCain, who has made fighting special-interest projects a centerpiece of his presidential campaign, inserted $14.3 million in a 2003 defense bill to buy land around Luke Air Force Base in a provision sought by SunCor Development, the largest of about 50 landowners near the base. SunCor representatives, upset with a state law that restricted development around Luke, met with McCain’s staff to lobby for funding, according to John Ogden, SunCor’s president at the time.

The Air Force later paid SunCor $3 million for 122 acres near the base. It was the highest single land transaction of the private lots purchased by the government — three times the county’s assessed value and twice the military’s estimated value. SunCor also donated another 122 acres. Alan Bunnell, a spokesman for SunCor’s parent company, Pinnacle West Capital, said the donation was meant to minimize the company’s tax bill and enhance the value of adjacent property it owns.

where is Vicki iseman? if we are vetting presidential candidates, where is vickki iseman? we need a megan alert posted on the freeways. it was created to find missing young white girl’s. Vicki Iseman is the only single blonde white women to disappear off the face of the planet. no interviews, no Q&A about her relationship with Senator McCain. nancy grace made career 24/7 365 days about a missing blonde teenager in aruba and no one in the media has followed up with the vicki iseman story. she is/was a lobbyist and if the senator is jettisoning lobbyist we the voters need to know more.

McCain did the correct thing. Nonetheless, he still has the ghost of Charles Keating haunting him and may have a hard time getting some voters to forget it. Though Obama has said on more than one occasion that he does not support guilt by association (frankly, if I were Obama, I would say the same thing considering his long term relationships will Wright and Ayers), one can place a sure bet that the Obama camp will blanket the airwaves, reminding everyone of McCain’s relationship with the scoundrel of the Savings and Loan industry. Afterwards, Obama will deny any beforehand knowledge that the ad was going to be run; and he will be in “shock,” when hears about it–similar to the shock of the Police Prefect in the movie, Casablanca, after discovering that gambling is ocurring in Rick’s Cafe.

I think McCain needs to stop trying to appeal to all side of the GOP and return to being himself. That is how he got to this point. telling it like it is, not what they want to hear. Lower the boom on obama, play hardball like he usually does.
