THAT is an excellent theory. The Clintons are well aware that if there is ANY possibility of scandalous information hitting the fan, it needs to be aired out way before serious campaign time so that it may quickly become "old news".
This newly publicized Berger stuff may have been something the Republicans were keeping up their sleeves, and the Clintons decided to bring it out themselves, on their own terms, and closely following an election when any scandal is LEAST damaging.
On the other hand, maybe it was Kerry who set this cycle in motion.
Or somebody else who wants to get Hillary out of the way.
if you can believe this - scanning the news channels right now - CNN wolf blitzer is providing the most coverage of this right now.
The only reason it is being released now is because people are traveling, shopping, and getting ready for Christmas. And talking about Rosie and the Donald. Sandy who?
