McCain to question Biden's ethics?

Two other AP writers are taking their turn on the tire swing :  


Biden's career provides grist for McCain's mill

In August 2007, three men who later became entangled in a Mississippi bribery scheme raised money for Sen. Joe Biden's run for president. A month later, two of the three were overheard in a phone call recorded by the FBI discussing federal legislation and a prospective meeting with Biden's brother, Jim.

It's unclear whether any meeting ever occurred or whether legislation was ever discussed, so the episode may mean little — except as an example of the potential political vulnerabilities that Barack Obama's running mate brings to the Democratic ticket.

Of course McCain and Co will run with it. Even if the facts are sketchy, by the time the attack ad is done, it will look like a slam dunk case.

You just have to have faith in Kennedy and Holder.
