Given Senator John McCain’s signature stance on campaign finance reform, it was not surprising that he backed legislation last year requiring presidential c&idates to pay a actual cost of flying on corporate jets. a law, which requires campaigns to pay charter rates when using such jets raar than cheDrunk Newser first-class fares, was intended to reduce a influence of lobbyists & create a level financial playing field.

But over a seven-month period beginning last summer, Mr. McCain’s cash-short campaign gave itself an advantage by using a corporate jet owned by a company headed by his wife, Cindy McCain, according to public records.
