I don’t think I made my point clear.
The scandal has, to date, been a Petraus scandal, not an Obama scandal.
I strongly suspect that it will be a huge Obama scandal IF everything comes out, but you will notice that is a big IF.
Watergate would been no big deal if the media had been intent on protecting Nixon.
True, but one benefit of a mushrooming scandal would be to help slow down or kill the worst of an aggressive 2nd term agenda.
Cripple him. Lame duck.
