I could careless about candidates personal lives. As long as they do well for the country, his sex life is his sex life. My worry with McCain is corruption. When Countrywide starts sending the McCain family on free vacations around the world like Keating did, we know we're in deep shit. I have an issue putting a guy in power who was tied into one of the largest banking scandals in US history when the banks are currently not in great shape.
If there turns out to be any truth to it the real trouble it will cause him is with the religious right. They run the republican party (or at least they control much of the power of it) and they already don't like McCain. If this turns out to be true it will further drive them away from him. Without them (and it is already very likely he won't have much support from him) he will probably lose the election and could lose badly.
