Lots of potential scandals out there....

LA Times keeping the lid on a tape of Obama at a pro-Palestinian conference that could destroy him in Florida... Joe Biden redefining "rich" down... to about 150K now for those of you keeping track, which could destroy him... well pretty much everywhere. And a website that doesn't seem to care if the same credit card is used over and over again to make dubious donations when we all know that folks like George Soros are plenty rich enough to be able to afford to pay some poor schlub to spend the entire day calling in 249 dollar donation after 249 dollar donations to the tune of many millions of dollars... Other percolating disasters as well.

I guess the question is... is it really a smart strategy to keep these potential scandals on the downlow just long enough for Obama to win, only to have them come out after the election? Because you KNOW they will... and when they do, the resulting noise could make governing impossible.

Is the media really helping a potential President Obama by behaving this way?

I'm not so sure it's a good idea. But then I'm voting for McCain, so make of that what you will.

Hey, we'll get a return to the best of the Carter years in terms of policies and the best of the Clinton years in terms of scandals. Sounds like a win-win for all.
