2. Not yet!

Why should the story stop being pursued? Who knows what could come of it?
New revealtions are breaking daily. The fact that he was credentialed and in the WH before Talon existed is huge.

The way I look at it is sex sells. When the fundies find out their beloved WH is in cahoots with prostitues they won't be happy. That's why it's important to keep getting info on it. Who knows where this will lead?

Do you think that burglary of the Democratic HQ in DC was a huge story in its early days?

4. Maybe there is....
Perhaps the information that was leaked to him regarding Ambassador Wilson's wife was from a client. A case of top secret pillow talk.

5. Sex Sells
For that reason alone, this story stands a better chance than any of the oh so many others of attracting the public's attention

6. Bingo!
MSM will make sure that lack of exposure will kill the story.

Remember the big Haiti story? We kidnapped the democratically elected president and flew him to Africa against his will. We installed murderers and drug runners to take over the country of Haiti.

Remember? If you do...you are one of the few.

MSM are traitors!

7. Gannon may seem ubiquitous here,
but I just googled 'N&O Jeff Gannon' -- that's the Raleigh News & Observer -- and got absolutely nothing. I don't get the paper myself, so I don't know what they've covered, but it doesn't look like much.

Getting a mention in NYT or WP doesn't mean much in these parts. If this isn't hitting the local papers, the message is not getting out.

I was, however, encouraged to see Daily Show last night.
