The September Surprise: Blowback from Benghazi threatens Obama’s Lead.

52. Lack of candor?

Didn't we go through this in the second debate? There was no lack of candor. The President called it an act of terror the day after the attack. The CIA has reported that the administration disclosed what it knew when it knew it as things became clearer. After all it was an attack in a foreign country in the aftermath of a revolution and undergoing nation-building. In other words, much confusion and fog of war. You can't exactly dispatch scores of investigators to cordon off the area with yellow police tape and began an investigation with door-to-door canvassing of witnesses in that environment. You have to rely on intelligence and trusted local source and that takes time. It is so obvious that the repugs want to make political hay with this just as they tried to with the Fast and Furious investigation that went nowhere. Even the same Congressman, Issa, is behind this. And from the President's numbers, it looks like this wild goose chase will go the same route as the Fast and Furious one. Even Romney has dropped it after his humiliation in the second debate. Seems that this OP is just what Congressman Issa would order.
