John McCain's statement rebuking Sen. Barack Obama for his decision to forgo public financing in the general election without mentioning that during the primary, McCain signed a loan that could have forced him to remain in the race -- even if he had no chance of winning -- in order to be eligible for public matching funds to repay the loan. http://mediamatters.org/items/200806200011 Fri, 20 Jun 2008 19:46:17 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200806090001 In an article about Sen. John McCain's outreach to "evangelicals and other Christian conservatives," <em>The New York Times</em> noted that "[i]n 2000, when he was running against Mr. Bush for the Republican nomination, Mr. McCain castigated Pat Robertson and the Rev.
