Will somebody please explain why this is even a story? Are conservatives creating a tempest in a teapot that only benefits the other side? It wasn’t Romney’s divorce, so why is this even in the political arena?

I think 0bama and his little yip-yip dog Allred knew there was nothing there. They wanted to bait Romney into opposing the release of the testimony just to play to a narrative of “what’s he hiding?”

Once again, Romney plays chess while 0bama plays with himself.

Its like Geraldo Rivera’s discovering Al Capone’s fabled secret vault was... empty!

Gloria Allred is going to get reams of pages of the most boring testimony you’ll find.

Nothing that excites the MSM. Its a dud.

And its not going to change the nature of the presidential race.

Theory #1 - There is some juicy detail that everyone else is missing. Perhaps even Romney doesn’t realize it.

Theory #2 - Allred is counting on the media buzz itself to do damage, even if there is zero substance behind it.

If this is Gloria Allred’s big October Surprise, then...zzzzz..wait, where was I? I think I dozed off.

Of course, the value of the story is that the media can run wall-to-wall 24-7 coverage of “some scandal” that most people won’t even understand, but which will have Romney’s name attached to it, and which will therefore “seem scandalous” in the minds of many voters. thus, tarring Romney...somehow...while distracting from Pres__ent Obama’s many, many failures.

“Its like Geraldo Rivera’s discovering Al Capone’s fabled secret vault was... empty!” Geraldo’s head is empty too.

He’s on the radio talking about the emails, denials from O administration, but STILL thinks the youtube video had something to do with this terrorist attack....based, of course, upon....nothing but his belief.

If I labeled Allred as a POS, would that be an insult to all feces?

Yet another desparate Diversion attempt.

The Messiah doesn't want to discuss his FAILED Wealth-Redistribution experiment of the past 4 years, his payoffs and money-laundering of Union Dues to Democrats/DNC (and their payoff to bail out their Members), nor the handouts to supporters in phony Green Energy boondoggles that are costing taxpayers BILLIONS in debt accumulation (most of the money was BORROWED, for liability to your children and grandchildren), while the Perps take their millions and are immune to Prosecution.

Sleaze attempts won't work at this stage, and even with the State-Run-Media trumpeting this non-story, it ain't gonna change the FACTS of the FAILURES of The Messiah and his corrupt Administration.

Not only is what you say likely true (he’s playing chess not checkers), but this also would show that Romney believes his testimony in that case is NOT a problem for him even if it is released. IOW, on substance (as opposed to chess moves), he’s not worried.

I'm guessing that this, along with Romney's desperado attempt to launch his boat when told not to, amounts to all the dirt the dims could dig up. It's a big yawn.

TMZ is all over this....there looks to be a concerted effort on their part as well as Gloria Allred. No proof, no evidence....but the seriousness of the charge is what seems to be the focus.

You nailed it. That’s exactly it.

Romney and his campaign are a bunch of really cool customers. They never panic, and they know exactly what’s going on in the heads of their opponents. One step ahead all the time, and nothing gets them off message - at least not these days.
