This brief video story was produced by the Barack Obama campaign as an effort to discredit Obama's opponent, John McCain. The video details the investigation into Charles Keating and the five senators he supposedly bribed, including John McCain. More from the Washington Post:
"McCain was ultimately exonerated by the Ethics Committee, which did fault him for exercising poor judgment in attending two meetings with federal regulators about their case against Keating, a once high-flying savings and loans owner who contributed $112,000 to McCain campaigns (as well as making gifts that were not found to be illegal). The collapse of Keating's thrift ultimately cost taxpayers billions, and Obama's campaign mounted a full-scale assault today on McCain's involvement, with an ad and short web documentary questioning his judgment."
