That is a great comment...Not really a question that needs an answer, because we already know what the answer is...
The question you do need to think about is this...
Why did this not come out in the campaign??? Before the election...
Once again, it is proof that the media and the Obama campaign wanteed a few of the things that wouldn’t necessarily torpedo the Obama express...
And that this would have put an anchor in the water and slowed them down when they needed the very momentum they presented to be nurtured by the mindless masses of the intellectually lazy, to stay focused on getting the election won, no matter what the cost...
If Hillary or even John McCain had won the election...Would anything like this even come up on the radar???
Think about it...
Fitz has been taping Blago since Oct., weeks before the talk about the Senate seat started. There was the Tribune situation and also other pay to play crimes being investigated. The Senate seat pay to play fell into Fitz's lap. It was an unexpected bonus.
Someone was about to blow the lid off the investigation, either from the Tribune, Blago's staff or possibly Obama (but I don't think so because I don't think they knew about it).
The timing of the arrest coming early in the morning shows the FBI wanted the element of total surprise and not give Blago or his accessories to the crimes any time to collaborate or destroy evidence. At the same time of the arrests, other FBI agents were at the doorsteps of others in on those phone calls, asking them questions. They didn't take any chances that those involved would alert each other as to what was coming down.
Interestingly enough, JJ, Jr., received a phone call the night before the arrests. He wasn't surprised at 6 AM, but he wasn't personally taped in the phone calls. What to make of that, I don't know.
