There is absolutely no way on God's green earth that Obama is going to release the first World Trade Center bomber (which no other than Kozy has even mentioned) under any circumstances prior to an election. None, zip, nada. As already stated, if Obama wanted to release him, it'd be done after the election, not before it.
Additionally, how does having a kidnapped ambassador in any way, shape, or form end up with Obama being viewed as a hero or strong on foreign policy. It'd be the exact same scenario as 1979 - president in election year facing a hostage crisis with Islamic terrorists. Even if the hostage were rescued, the fact that he didn't have enough security, gave numerous warnings in advance of his concerns, etc. would still exist. In actuality, it makes the situation worse for Obama because the media would forced to give the story - and Obama's miserable failings - the attention it deserves.
Obama's people jumped on the YouTube video excuse solely as a cover for their own mistakes. They did not plan to set up one of our Ambassadors for kidnapping or engage in any other nefarious activity.

requesting his release for humanitarian grounds.
That was the signal to Obama to bow to the muslim brotherhood.

If I’m not mistaken, Hillary issued her correction apology/announcement on the State Dept website (that was later deleted?) BEFORE the Benghazi attack. In that statement, she was already referring to an offensive video (the YouTube video).
