Another interesting misstep by the speechwriters - he mentioned the rumors but the only 2 he said were untrue were that Elin hit him and that he used PED’s. I think that by being so specific in the denials, he admits (by exclusion) that all the others are true. I understand he couldn’t respond to every single rumor out there, but I think he’d have been better served not mentioning the rumors at all, because it just leaves the door open to more questions. Although I can understand refuting the “Elin hit me” rumor b/c he has to defend her, and the PED stuff because that really goes to the heart of his image.
That's a good point I hadn't noticed. But it was shrewd the way he dodged in and out of the subject now that you mention it...
