Lanny could very well be right.
This story may have been leaked by a RAT with the pre-meditated "it's a conspiracy" response ready for deployment.
Bill Clinton said today that he'd known about the federal probe on Berger for months. If he knew, many others on the Left knew as well..Hillary, Bruce Lindsey, Kerry, etc. I don't believe for one minute that the Kerry Campaign didn't know about this investigation.
We all recall how Clinton Admin. put bad news out, for instance, on a Friday, as a preemptive strike. My hope and guess is that Ashcroft close to charging McBergler, but someone close to BC was the leaker. Thus every desparate democrat can go to convention and claim what you said, and avoid the fact their candidate is a full fledged incompetent boob.
I think that's exactly what happened - a preemptive strike. Guess it backfired. Whoops....
I guess when the story of Bush's drunken driving arrest came out 3 days before the election there was no political motivation.
I tend to think the same .. this was leaked from the left side
I heard Lanny Davis and he was down playing Berger's crime. He more or less called it a "mistake".
