In reply to the discussion: Signs are Pointing to Obama Campaign having Dirt on Romney Finances [View all]Clouseau2
(60 posts)64. Obama better WATCH OUT!
I can see this happening already:
1) Obama campaign collects damning evidence on Romney's finances
2) A Karl Rove operative leaks fake "evidence" to the Obama campaign
3) The Obama campaign releases their evidence and accuses Romney of shenanigans
4) Right wing bloggers examine the evidence and find the fake evidence
5) Even though it's just one piece of evidence, all the charges against Romney fall apart and the story turns into how Obama tried to cheat to prove Romney did something wrong
I think there's a very good possibility this is exactly what happened in the CBS/Bush AWOL story.

If the Bush family had such information, why would they squander this power?

Just watched the Gibbs clip on MJ and had the same Birther thought while watching Gibbs slam Senor.

I hope this is right. For once it would be nice for the October Surprise to be against the crooks

I tend to agree. It wouldn't matter to them if it was revealed that he poisoned his mother.

If he won't release the copies of tax returns he gave to McCain, something's fishy.

The idea that Romney committed voter fraud is even more crushing than the shady tax evasion.
