Broadcaster Lowell "Bud" Paxson today contradicted statements from Sen. John McCain's presidential campaign that the senator did not meet with Paxson or his lobbyist before sending two controversial letters to the Federal Communications Commission on Paxson's behalf.

Paxson said he talked with McCain in his Washington office several weeks before the Arizona Republican wrote the letters to the FCC urging a rapid decision on Paxson's quest to acquire a Pittsburgh television station.

Paxson also recalled that his lobbyist, Vicki Iseman, attended the meeting in McCain's office and that Iseman helped arrange the meeting. "Was Vicki there? Probably," Paxson said in an interview with The Washington Post today. "The woman was a professional. She was good. She could get us meetings."

1. Uh-oh! They did meet and she was there. Hmm. nt

2. This is not going to end well for McCain.

He took a very hard line denial of the Time's stoy. There's growing indisputable confirmations to the contrary...so how does Mr. Clean walk this back? He's in bed with lobbyists and he's a liar. Some would call him a Republican.

3. "The woman was a professional"

That almost sounds like he's calling her a "working girl" and that John was her "John" and that instead of cash, he's was giving her other things of value.

5. McCain was stupid making huge blanket disclaimers like he did.

When he said it I had a feeling he was going to get caught.
