If a man is a partner, but has no equity interest and has no profits interest, he is a partner "in name only" and there is no conflict of interests.

Under the most benign interpretation, mccain, who has made his post convention theme "fighting special interests in washington", has a lobbyist at the head of his campaign...that's the most benign way to look at this...the man was lobbying freddie mac while heading the campaign to make mccain the republican nominee...truth is that there is no room in the republican party for a "maverick"...as a true maverick he wouldn't get to first base. He can squirm and put up a front, but in the end he has to hire "palin" or kiss up to "falwell" or, in this case, special interests.
