Cannoneer:

Bob Bennet, the lawyer who defended Bill Clinton, a big time Democrat and the guy who investigated Sen McCain on the Keating 5 business, has said publically and clearly, and more than once, that McCain should never have been included in that investigation, and he formally recommended that to the authorities at that time.

It appears that McCain was included so that they could have one token Republican as well as those 4 Democrats and thus make the investigation look Bipartisan.

If they bring up Keating one of their own has already cut ther legs out from under them.
