Arizona Republican Sen. John McCain was the target of rumors in South Carolina during the 2000 campaign. Whispers circulated that McCain had fathered an illegitimate black child and many thought they were planted by rival George W. Bush's camp, although Bush's top aide Karl Rove denied it. Bush ended up beating McCain in the subsequent primary, 53 percent to 42 percent.
