"I still wince thinking about it and find that if I do not repress the memory..."
Edited on Mon Oct-06-08 04:17 AM by A-Schwarzenegger

McCain on Keating5's lingering personal effects, writing in 2002:

"Despite my recovery, the Keating Five experience was not one that I have walked away from as easily as I have other bad times," McCain wrote in 2002. "Twelve years after its conclusion, I still wince thinking about it and find that if I do not repress the memory, its recollection still provokes a vague but real feeling that I had lost something very important, something that was sacrificed in the pursuit of gratifying ambitions, my own and others', and that I might never possess again as assuredly as I once had."

He did lose "something very important" - Cindy was an investor!

5. Cindy also got hooked on painkillers after the incident.
So I guess that also goes down the tubes in today's smokescreen. What an asshole.
