"Petraeus outed himself and resigned just to take all that leverage away from them."

That's the way it sounded initially, but the MSM is in overdrive mode with stories about FBI investigations, him using agency email to constantly try to contact her after she broke it off, etc., etc.

You're actually making my point.

The MSM stories have been flooding the airwaves after Petraeus resigned and it no longer makes any difference who was investigating whom, when these investigations were ongoing, etc.

He's gone from Washington, and nothing they put out there is going to have any effect on him other than to damage his reputation -- which he obviously wasn't terribly concerned about in the first place (if the MSM reports are accurate).
