McCain transition team linked to Saddam

Good grief!

I guess McCain wanted to run a campaign that didn't care who it associated with because he saw how well it worked against him in the 2000 primary. But now this may be the story that ends it all.

It turns out that William Timmons, the head of McCain's presidential transition team, worked for Saddam Hussein in the Iraqi dictator's efforts to relax international sanctions against his regime. Two lobbyists Timmons worked with later pleaded guilty or were convicted of federal charges that they acted as the dictator's unregistered agents.

It gets a little complicated, but I think now it's game over. Seriously.

Kind of takes the wind out of Free Republic's harping about the Ayers nonstory, doesn't it?
