roger altman heads the investors that own the national inquirer.

in “game change” by john heilemann

john edwards pleaded with altman to call off the dogs.

something about this whole matter doesn’t make sense.

[kjo]

Heard some of the victim’s statement on radio this morning...highly detailed and very believable...let’s see if the MSM will give this any play.

Unlikely, I know.

[Bringbackthedraft]

I wonder how much $$$$$$ or appointments will be involved to decide this case??

[Sacajaweau]

It all makes sense if you look into her background and find out that she’s a Journalist....and that her LONG police report reads like a book.

agreed. a long 4 years after the fact, the woman appears with the “stained” pants. Why not show such strong evidence at the time of the alleged crime?

[Leftism is Mentally Deranged]

It this had been an accusation against a normal person during a Supreme Court nomination hearing, I would not believe the accusation. Let’s see how far this goes. Democrats usually get a free pass.

[DesertRhino]

She seems like a gold digger. AlGore is still a bum no matter what. But im a little suspicious of a woman that will go to a married man’s motel room, at 1030 at night, for 500 bucks,,, to rub oil on his inner thighs,,, and then goes into “deep shock” when she realized he wanted little Al to get a happy ending.

Sillyness,, and a 72 page report? To me, it sounds like AlGore learned about the *fun reality* of liberal women from the pacific northwest (the hard way).

[Hoosier-Daddy]

You mean like a late night, $450 massage with (un)wanted sexual advances? Yeah, he was set up, but obviously this was not his first time at the massage rodeo - “release my second chakra” roflmao. The Communists say the prols will revolt over being exploited. Exactly who is trying to exploit the masses with Crap ‘n Tax? The Communists. Hubris. Thank you, God.

[camle]

remember how much fun the dems had with ken starr, and his ‘all about sex’?

this sounds like a plant, and since it comes out at this time, before the november elections, I’m suspicious.

it’s all too neat adn tidy, and she has evidence that is suddenly going to break the case?

[70th Division]

Just my opinion: There are lots of women out there, including during the Clinton Administration that do not and did not report a crime like this for a long time. They feel guilt, get no support, are ashamed etc.

[DesertRhino]

And the stain on the pants only proves they had contact when he was naked. That’s the reason she was there in the 1st place,, so that proves nothing not already agreed upon.

[freespirited]

She did contact the police several times prior to making the statement. But then she would get cold feet and cancel the appointment. Apparently she was a big Gore fan in the past and her friends were telling her not to go forward.

I believe her, but I agree that the way she handled this makes prosecution unlikely. Especially since she has expressed willingness to accept money.

[Mr. Mojo]

Perhaps the recent news of Al and Tipper’s separation made this woman feel more comfortable about revealing the incident.

[DesertRhino]

“release my second chakra”

That is super funny, how leftists hate normal sex so much. They have to wrap it in some kind of Hindu 3rd world language to feel legitimate,,,

I don’t want the psycho chick to prevail, but i couldn’t be happier that AlGores career has just imploded. He will never be taken seriously again. His assaholic lectures are completely “stake through the heart” dead.

excerpt:

"...the woman tells how Gore greeted her at the door of his room at the Hotel Lucia for the 11 p.m. appointment with a hug that "went on a bit long," then quipped "call me Al." Hotel staff had told the licensed therapist when booking her that the client was Al Gore, but that he was going under the name "Mr Stone."

Gore allegedly asked her to focus on his abdominal area and adductors -- the inner thigh muscles -- as well as his back and other areas.

While his lower body was covered with a sheet, she said, Gore "became vocal" with "muffled moans" and asked her to go lower, getting angry when she refused.

"It appeared he was demanding sexual favors or sexual behaviors," the woman said.

She then asked Gore to show her where he wanted to be massaged and he "grabbed my hand, shoved it down under the sheet to his ***** **** area, my fingers brushing against his ***** and firmly planted my hand on his pubic crest region and said to me 'There!' in a very sharp, loud, angry-sounding tone."

The woman told police she was caught in "a perfect storm" in a room with someone who was "Teflon-coated in terms of his credibility and celebrity status"..."

Police specifically responded to claims by the woman -- who said she remained clothed through the alleged encounter -- that she had noticed her black slacks had "stains" on them.

Police said they did not collect her attire because they believed it would not provide evidence.

“At this point, the Police Bureau does not consider this an ongoing investigation unless new evidence is received in this case,” Wednesday's police statement said.

I've just assumed that if someone calls for a masseuse to come to his hotel room at 11:00PM he is expecting sex, not a back rub.

“Especially since she has expressed willingness to accept money”

You mean late at night in a hotel room in the first place,, or by selling her story for a million?
