They both have denied it. McCain. "Senator John McCain said Thursday that an article in The New York Times about his close ties to a woman lobbyist was untrue, that he had no romantic relationship with the lobbyist and that he had no confrontations in 1999 with worried staff members who told him to stay away from her."

I don't have a link to the Iseman denial, but I'm pretty sure she has denied it as well. Enigma ^msg! 21:25, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

It's hard to call it outright false reporting, but it's sloppy, tabloid reporting. They rushed the story because they didn't want TNR to beat them to it. Enigma ^msg! 21:36, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
