An e-mail from Rep. Darrell Issa's (R-Calif.) campaign suggested Wednesday that the controversy over Rep. Joe Sestak's (D-Pa.) alleged administration job offer could be President Barack Obama's Watergate scandal.

In an e-mail with the subject line "The Sestak Affair - Obama's Watergate?", the ranking member on the Oversight and Government Reform committee focused on "long-standing questions" about the offer Sestak says was made to him to urge him to drop out of the Pennsylvania Democratic Senate primary.

But, if Eric Holder does nothing, does it go away or does Congressman Issa and the American people have any recourse?

Obama already has a Watergate. It’s called “Oilgate.”

“Obama will scorch the earth rather than resign.”

He will starta race war, at the very least.

It is up to us to make sure it does not “go away”

You’re 100% correct.

I guess the point should have been added that it will take a MUCH MORE corrupt Democrat President to get their “Nixon”.

It will take a bigger scandal to get their “Nixon”, but in the end (if this event unfolds) he will be put under the same light as Nixon. It’s unfair to Nixon, based on your list of points.

I just hope they get their “Nixon”. They deserve it.

They deserve it for making a bigger deal out of Nixon and hating him more than they should have. They deserve it for doing everything they could to blame Bush for Katrina; blaming Bush for 9-11; lying about the Valerie Plame “scandal”; making Sarah Palin look like the Devil to the average American.

They deserve their Katrina, Plame Scandal, and Watergate all rolled up into one!!

It almost seems like the perfect storm is brewing for this to happen.

In the meantime, I will just dream about it.
