I hear ya daleburt, and believe me, I am cynical too about depending on "scandal" to win your political wars for you. The left plays dirty with manufactured scandals all the time. The Joe--Wilson-Yellow-Cake-Valerie-Plame-I-WAS!-A-Covert-Agent-No-Nepotism-Scooter-Libby-Perjury-Trap "scandal" is but one such example. That was a non-non scandal that the MSM and the Democrats went nuts over.

I remember back in the 80's, when the networks ruled the airwaves, and the MSM went nuts over "Iran-Contra." That was a joke as well. Reagan "violated the spirit of the obscure 'Boland Ammendment' to an Authorization Bill." Give me a break. It was a foreign policy dispute between Congress and the White House, with Congress supporing Communists in Central America. Once the American People found out more and more facts, the MSM and the Democrats had no choice but to pound the table even louder.

I am cynical today too, but here is the difference with the Black Panther Voting Intimidation Scandal.

1. A legitimate crime was committed

2. Not only are there witnesses, there is videotape

3. The Obama Administration did not just intervene, they threw the case out because of racial reasons, and then lied about their involvement

4. If the GOP controls the House next term, the majority party has subpoena power, and that is HUGE! (the minority party has no such authority). The Democrats know this, and it worries the hell out of them. Contempt of Congress and Lying to Congress can still get you in a heap big pile of trouble. Ask Roger Clemens.P> So, while I wouldn't bet my Easter candy on it, I will say that in a few months, Eric Holder and his clowns are going to be a tad more nervous about the crime and cover up they committed.

Some lower underling will probably be tossed from the boat by the fascist regime.

But then again.....you never know what you will find until you start digging.
