Reply #2: Hard to say, isn't it?

I remember the scandal with Trent Lott. Those quotes he made about "all those problems we could have avoided" if Strom Thurmond had been elected.

I really thought it blow over. But no. It was like an avalanche of piling on top of Lott's statement. Repubs and even Fox News piled on.

And it happened SUDDENLY.

I think it almost tipped for the original torture pics, too. But that died rather quickly in the media.

So, you never know.

But I DO think this has got the momentum.
