You know, this makes a lot of sense. My first thought was Obama in a gay relationship (come on he DOES look a little light in the loafers)

Obama is not gay. His problem is that he is rapidly losing testosterone.

Little Green Footballs links to another blog with a consolidation of many different reports that it may be the Hillary/Huma connection:

This blog discusses the rumor and mentions that the Hillary campaign has recently been promoting Huma in photos and in the media (Vogue spread, etc.) to “hide her in plain sight” — i.e., pre-empt a scandal by giving a reason why they go everywhere together. Interesting speculation — if true, would dovetail with Rosenbaum’s comment that you can see hints of why certain media reports may be arising as a result of the scandal...

And below, it’s discussed that the ‘toons may have gotten the GQ story killed because of this rumor. It’s starting to look like this may be the big alleged scandal — whether or not it’s actually true is another story:

http://www.nohillaryclinton.com/2007/10/31/la-times-sitting-on-explosive-prez-candidate-story/

Several commenters on Rosenbaum’s article strongly believe that Hillary Clinton will ultimately be revealed as a lesbian, and that the recent GQ story her campaign helped kill by threatening to withhold a Bill Clinton interview may have gone into some shocking details into her sex life.Rumors of a close Hillary relationship with one of her top aides Huma Abedin, shown above, have long been swirling. Hillary has long denied being a lesbian.

Good points.

I’m astonished that nothing leaked anywhere, especially to Drudge. That could be a clue pointing to Hillary.

If it were Hillary, though, they wouldn’t have come out saying we have a story, but..........

OTOH, I don’t know if the MSM has the brass to challenge the Clintons on anything. The Clintons would have preempted or floated some rumors about the writer(s). So far, we heard nothing.

Derailment implies someone who is doing well according to the MSM and seemingly has nothing in their path. To me that says Guiliani, Romney on the R side and Clinton or Obama on the D side. I tend to think if it was an R the cat would be out of the bag already, because next October I think is too long to keep it secret.

It’s Hillary and Huma.

Now it’s clear why Osama, the Ambulance chaser and even Little Timmy Russert no longer fear the beast.

And if you look close enough you can find hints of something impending, something potentially derailing to this candidate in the reporting of the campaign. Which could mean that something unspoken, unwritten about is influencing what is written, what we read.

McCain has been the liberal media go to guy to smack down Conservatives. I do not see him or his campaign keeping quiet if it were Guiliani or Romney or any other Republican. Yet why is McCain not a 'top' tier candidate?

I have not paid enough attention specifically in the manner in which Clinton or Obama have been covered to discern if their coverage has demonstrated hints of something impending, something potentially derailing to their campaigns.

The reference to “ethics” and the Los Angeles Times in the same column is a joke.
Yup.

Maybe der Schlickmeister finally got one of his girlfriends pregnant and she's threatening to write a "Tell All".

can’t see the MSM sitting on a Republican sex scandal, thats for sure

TRUE. Anything about a Republican would be rammed out fast. My bet is Obama has several Jesse Jackson's in his closet.

I just know it can’t possibly be a GOP scandal because they considered ‘holding it’.

No way the liberal MSM does that.

“There already was a story posted here months ago about Thompson and some woman. So that can’t be it. It wouldn’t be ‘shocking’.”

True, but while this got zero repeat coverage after the debate, I thought FDT’s response to this question, followed by a quick back peddle, to be an oddly revealing personal remark for a presidential candidate and, frankly, IMO, was not at all funny.

Ms. Bartiromo: Senator Thompson? Senator Thompson, this was your first debate. How did it feel?

Mr. Thompson: Just like home......I didn’t say which kind of home.

IF that were the case, she’d be fish food by now
