I hate when unsubstantiated stuff like this comes up. Most times its just crap. If it was REALLY a big news item--SOMEONE would have put it out immediately. It just raises expectations (like the STOLEN HOUR thing,,,,like Slick's impeachment testimony,,,like the repeated 'October surprises')--and if those high expectations are not met, the story becomes a non-story--ending up being a net minus.

Or worse, NOTHING happens and the resulting disappointment can de-energize some support and supporters (i.e. Sinclair and Slick testimony mentioned above). We've been burned too many times already.

If there is something there--JUST PUT IT OUT! Don't give us this "I have a secret and I'm not telling yet" crap,,,,and more importantly, don't give the opposition time to prepare their spin with their well-thought out, tortured logic and phoney defenses!!!

JUST DO IT ASAP,,,don't heighten non-existent and/or false expectations.

Could even be possible this rumor was started by lefties just to sit back and watch us go nuts.
