But here's the problem with it: John McCain regrets the Keating 5. Indeed, you could say that his entire subsequent career has been one long apology for it. Repudiating what happened has formed the cornerstone of his current career; in a very real sense, it was the father of McCain-Feingold.
For real? Just yesterday one of McCain's surrogates told me that the Keating Five investigation was "a political smear job on John [McCain]."
My friends, that's not contrition you can believe in.
