Guilty on all counts

A jury has convicted Alaska Sen. Ted Stevens on seven felony counts for lying about the gifts he received from a friendly businessman. Stevens was indicted back in July and is running for re-election to the Senate.

Question: Does this throw a banana peel in front of John McCain? (I don't mean to suggest McCain has anything to do with Stevensgate, just that this is another black eye on the Republican Party in a critical week.)
