I think if there was anything in ANY of this that he thought he could use for his own political gain OR wrongney's, it would CERTAINLY have been used. I wonder if maybe he was hoping HE had the "October Surprise," but then it didn't pan out the way he was hoping. So we're only finding out about it now. AFTER the election.

I was just watching michael isikoff on MSNBC and he was practically drooling. He's a guy who seems to LOVE a sex scandal. For a LONG time after the Clinton administration was over, I suspected he couldn't find his way around any story unless there was a stained blue dress and a Clinton involved. Well, he's got himself another sex scandal, and his eyes were almost on fire on camera a few moments ago! This is really turning him on. Wonder what's in HIS closet?
