Frankly, when it comes to scandal, the sexual kind bothers me FAR less than the scandals of power, intrigue and manipulation.

"Suddenly the internet popped up and several folks with right wing leanings -- like, for instance, Matt Drudge, beat the main stream media to so many stories, and with such accuracy, that a power shift occurred much like I've described the one that now favors the Democrats." John Hardly

One other thought pops up that startles me: John Hardly says, "If (In) their defense, I think that it used to strike more Democrats as outrageous until the several years of holding out and spinning the story made the tide turn toward sympathy for Clinton.
