Ping!

“The dealing seemed very close to a climax — and an explosive political scandal. And then, on the morning of December 5, the Chicago Tribune ran a story on its front page reporting that law enforcement had secretly recorded Blagojevich’s conversations as part of a criminal investigation. Blagojevich immediately instructed Fundraiser A to “undo” the plan to meet personally with the associate of Candidate Five. Blagojevich instead turned his energy to preparing his legal defense.”

So now a big question is WHO leaked to the media about the wiretaps, leading to the Dec. 5 story in the Chicago Tribune?

That action effectively ended the investigation and removed the possibility of any new wiretap evidence (assuming Blago. is not completely crazy - we know he’s stooopid but surely after that Dec. 5 article he stopped blabbing about illegal activities on the phone).

Someone put an end to this investigation prematurely. WHO and WHY? The why seems to be obvious, in general, to prevent any more Chicago pols from getting ensnared.

Yep...the TRIB rides to the rescue of Obama...just like we suspected yesterday! BUSTED!! No doubt that the O team was informed of this coming story a few days or weeks before it hit the printing press though.

WHAT DID THE TRIBUNE KNOW AND WHEN DID THEY KNOW IT?

WHAT DID THE O TEAM KNOW AND WHEN DID THEY KNOW IT?
