I was hearing rumblings of Edwards a few weeks ago actually.
Exactly. Nothing like coming off as a guy who is cheating on his terminally ill wife.
I think it is Obama regarding a certain restroom in the Mineapolis airport.
If it’s a Republican who gets the GOP nomination, it will run in October, the month before the election. If it’s a democrap who gets the nomination, the story will be forgotten........
So, where are the pictures?
Oh yes they would because timing of its release is everything......
By jove I think you’ve got it!
I think your post of possible scenarios may well be the whole point of the story.
I say it is a Dem and they float it out this way first so that we play out these speculations and let the rumors run wild.
That way, every candidate is affected in the speculation stage, and the “real” story will lose most of it’s punch by the time it is finally sprung.
Therefore- it involves a Rat. They are trying to mitigate the damage up front. And there is only one candidate that the media would do this ground work for.
Oh yes they would because timing of its release is everything......
You have that right on! Just remember it was the LA Slimes that released the Arnold groping and sex stories just weeks before the election in CA to derail him.
JOHN EDWARDS
and don’t forget that Florida politician who had an affair with the 17 year old page. The media had the story for over 3 months but didn’t release it until a week before the election.........
Unless it's a GOP frontrunner, in which case they might wait until after the nomination (or October 2008).
Why would you say that?
I expected a bunch by now...guess I missed out. It was a pretty subtle hint however.
Regards,
My guess is that it's about Edwards and the woman who works on his campaign. They probably are reluctant to break the story because Edwards wife is reportedly dying of breast cancer, and he's already denied it.
Agree. Since he claims it's a "leading presidential candidate", it has to be one of them. If it's any one of those GOP candidates, I don't see the DC media sitting on it for any reason. It would harm the entire GOP field to embroil a GOP candidate in a sex scandal, and they'd do it asap. I could see them sitting on an Obama story, because it wouldn't be PC, dontchaknow. If it's Her Heinous, we'll never hear about it. Ever.
Saudi? Are you sure? Is this the rumored LA Times freak-out babe?
I know for a fact its Chris Dodd, Ted Kennedy and Hillary. They made a triple decker sandwich....OK, easy stomach...
Here’s my take. If it’s a Republican, and that Republican knows it may be about him, he ought to come clean now and diffuse the whole situation now. If he waits and gets the nomination and then it comes out, he could be damaged politically and hand the White House to the Dems. He needs to think about it.
