This is a classic 'Catch-22" situation:
(1)Bush releases ALL the documents, paperwork, notes, etc. and the press has an orgy for a week or two. They will find SOMETHING that they can present in an unfavorable manner, and Bush will be burned.
(2)Bush releases NONE of the documents, paperwork, notes, etc, and the press mood develops into a feeding frenzy that will last for weeks, and will continue to be mentioned in every story about ANY business deal gone bad. His "moral leadership" will be questioned daily.There will be calls for a special prosecutor.
Bush loses...no matter what. Take a lesson (unlearned) from Whitewater. Do a massive document drop late on a Friday evening. Overwhelm the press and the Dimocrats with paper. They go berserk for a few days and the pain should end then.
No way to win.

Yep. They will find one or two sentences out of thousands of pages. And in a fully coordinated assault with the DNC, the media would pound away at the President.
