“The Democrat machine is in full smear campaign.”

I’m not sure what you mean by this. If we accept that Petraeus was asked to resign because they didn’t like how he was staking out a “don’t blame us” position on Benghazi, then Broadwell did the WH a huge favor by giving them a pretext for said firing. Unlike how Lewinsky was handled, I don’t see any effort by this administration to “rehabilitate” Petraeus or make it look like he was an innocent victim. He self-reported dishonoring himself and his position and they accepted his resignation. End of story. What am I missing?

Petraeus may have been forced to stake a “don't blame us” position on Benghazi or else his affair would be made public. Petraeus may have negative information that he passed on to Broadwell. The Democrats are getting out in front and smearing her as unintelligent.

Harvard professors rarely negatively smear an ex-student. Very strange, we'll see....

I’m not sympathetic to Broadwell at all! She fell short of her goals at Harvard. So, she fell on her back and used her breasts and vagina to achieve her goals. And if she had unauthorized classified information on her computer, put her sorry ass in GiTMO!

You’re missing that the Whitehouse knew about the affair before they made Petraeus director. They won’t appoint somebody they don’t have something on. It’s called Chicago politics.

Just the whole story. Hint: It has nothing to do with an illicit affair.
