Bob Beckel says Bombshell is heading Michele Obama's way. (Vanity)

Why just automatically assume the Republicans are behind it? If Bammy is elected a whole group of people lose their “victim” status.

[Ditto]

Beckel is a Clinton water carrier so what would you expect from him? Why would the Rep be blamed, as he claims?

Beckel is a nut case and he would blame the Republicans if it rains or if it doesn't rain.

The guy has zero credibility. They just put him on TV because he's a one man freak show.

Heeeeeeeeeheeeeeeeeeeeheeeeeeeeeee! Christmas in June (or whenever this tape hits!)

[elizabetty]

You could be right.

Is there a special rehab center for people suffering from FarahkanKool-aid abuse?

[Ann Archy]

Drudge has NOTHING on it either!! The Clintons want ius to go off the cliff on this.

"Hillary is behind it all. She has just managed to make it look like the work of the Republicans."

Of course she's behind it. Hannity has been saying for weeks now that the whisper campaign / rumor is directed straight at him as being the one who has a damaging tape about Michelle. He's the natural target for Hillary to pin it on, since he was the first to interview Jeremiah Wright way over a year ago on his show.

Unfortunately for Hillary, people are wise to her tactics and that includes the 'RATS who are supporting Obama. They will blame her (not Republicans) for "dirty tricks" against Obama because they know that she will stop at nothing in order to "steal the nomination" from him. Obama's supporters will never vote for her in the general if she gets the nomination. Likewise, very few of Hillary's supporters will vote for Obama.

Thanks to Operation Chaos, the 'RAT party is now divided and will be conquered regardless of which one gets the nomination.

Beckel is a liar and an idiot. it makes no sense for Republicans to drop something this big at this time. Why not wait for it until it is of use to them?

I think it's pretty clear that the Repubs. have to release it now. If they wait till later this rumor is going to continue and when they drop the tape it's going to look like a dirty trick that many people may find very unappealing.

If they release it right after Obama gets the delegates needed then it will look like Hillary could have been behind it.

So there's a race right now........... Hillary is trying to suspend her campaign before this drops, and the Repubs are trying to get it out after Obama gets the delegates he needs, but before Hillary suspends her campaign.

[Matchett-PI]

You got it. bttt

[Liberty2007]

yes, we know you are adament about this. you know who cares about this scandal...we do. Are we going to vote for Obama. No. This will not change the mind of the proles that would vote for Obama anyway, and even if proven to be legitimate might even bring in more support. all this is just as bad as the left calling Laura a murderer for having a car accident as teenager.

[kabar]

Simple solution. You let the Republicans leak it out and saint Hillary comes in to save the democratic party and the country from those evil racist republicans who destroyed a poor black man just like they tried to destroy her and her husband..blah blah blah.

Your logic leaves a lot to be desired. Why would the "tolerant" and "multiculturalist" Dems allow the Reps to trash the first black candidate as the nominee for President of either major party? Why would they allow the Reps to choose their candidate for them?

I was just reading this OpEd at the NY Times:

Superdelegates, Back Off

[pepperhead]

Obama could have had a nice, plush lifelong career in the Senate. I guess his ego got the best of him. I mean, with all these skeletons in the Obama family, why would he be so arrogant, i.e., psychotic, to think he could actually win the Presidency in the first place?

Obama isn't the first and he won't be the last arrogant psycho to seek to obtain as much power as he possibly can.

[mware]

I just tried the link from the green room. Her post is no longer there. There were over 35 comments when I made my comment.

[RummyChick]

There is something bizarre about Ann’s post.

[pepperhead]

I happen to see this and the way Beckel was stammering and stuttering made my day. Look out for the dems to pull a Torricelli though.

As someone said before to me.

Frank Lautenberg in blackface?

[B Knotts]

Yes. After I posted that, I thought about it some more and realized that releasing it now would indeed introduce even more chaos into the Democrat party.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

Bill and Hill have been far more injurious to our country than Obama could possibly be.

I disagree on that statement....

See what Obama has promised regarding disarming the military.

[Cboldt]

-- FOX News pulled the link. --

I thought about this some more, and think that FoxNews wants to avoid being associated, in general, with spreading a rumor, and especially so on the same day as the last two DEM primaries.

Think of what Obama supporters would say and do if the discussion, started by Fox and hosted on a Fox website, remained available to the public.

[bcsco]

There is something bizarre about Ann’s post.

I don't know about bizarre. She's running on pure emotion and not letting speculation get in her way.

That's all this is for now; speculation. No one here (or anyone we know - even Bekel) has admitted to seeing the tape. So, with that in mind, everything said here is up for grabs.

That also holds true for why Fox dropped the web post. That's even more speculative than the Michelle Obama story (the contents of which at least has some credence from a Bob Bekel). No one with knowledge has come out to say why the Fox piece was dropped.

[Texas Songwriter]

This is pure Clinton.

I agree. The timing says Clinton. If the Republicans had this to dump they would dump it in October. Gonna piss off many who see no problem with Michelles' statements. Denver, here they come.
