Kathryn, I nominate this paragraph as the lamest one in that Huffpo hit:

Frank Keating, the former Oklahoma governor, serves as one of two Catholics For McCain Co-Chairs. In June 2003, Keating was forced to resign from a Catholic Church review board after he suggested that the bishops were engaging in Mafia-like activities in their efforts to obstruct investigations into the child sexual abuse scandal. “To act like La Cosa Nostra and hide and suppress, I think, is very unhealthy,” he told the Los Angeles Times. The comments earned him some plaudits among critics (and there were many) of the church. But they were also viewed as unnecessarily antagonistic. Keating refused to apologize.

I’m sure the McCain campaign is really sweating over this connection.
