Now this is interesting. She’s getting ready to make her move—there have been hints all along; she just needed to wait until he was Odinged up enough in the polls, until he lost enough of his luster to make him attackable???

But why not release this during the primaries? That’s the mystery.

So, I have to assume that the rumors that she had 3 copies of the BC might be false.

We’ll see, I guess.

For what it's worth, here's the theory I've seen on that.

If Hillary had released this during the primaries, it would have been perceived by blacks as an unforgivable sabotage of Barry's candidacy, and they would have sat out the election in great enough numbers to swing the election to McCain.

Understanding these dynamics, Hillary decided to take her chances at beating him fair and square, and lost.

Now, what doesn't make sense about that theory to me, is that she could have leaked the evidence of his ineligibility from any number of sources that wouldn't be easily traced back to her.

But - there's the countervailing thought that Barry's campaign would have scuttled her chances anyway, just by claiming that she was responsible. That's all it would have taken. Who would blacks have believed, Obama, or Hillary?
