Remember those times something "leaked" that something terrible was going to happen to the Clintons (remember the hype over the video deposition, where Clinton was reported to have got up and left in the middle of the questions, then then remember how it came out. Reality was not as bad as it was reported.)

What if at the top of this media fed feeding frenzie the Bush Administration announces they have Saddam (or proof he is dead). What will happen to all those that went off the deep end.
I don't know what this administration has planned, but they have been ahead of their critics from the beginning, allowing them to go on and on, and then bam, pulling some action out of the hat no one expected.
By having Newt on the same day - it made her remarks seem more credible.
Newt is letting himself be used by the very people who really hate him. If he has some real concerns - they should be addressed to the people who can do something about it if they find him credible.
