So I was down in DC this past weekend and happened to run into a well-connected media person, who told me flatly, unequivocally that “everyone knows” The LA Times was sitting on a story, all wrapped up and ready to go about what is a potentially devastating sexual scandal involving a leading Presidential candidate. “Everyone knows” meaning everyone in the DC mainstream media political reporting world. “Sitting on it” because the paper couldn’t decide the complex ethics of whether and when to run it. The way I heard it they’d had it for a while but don’t know what to do. The person who told me )not an LAT person) knows I write and didn’t say “don’t write about this”.

Or Bill Richardson claiming he slept with the Kansas City A’s in 1966?

[tennteacher]

If that many people know about it, it’ll get out.

“The only people I trust are thee and me, and sometimes I’m no so sure about thee.”

[bcsco]

Or, it’s a Republican and they’re waiting till election eve.

That likely depends on the candidate. If someone like Thompson, Hunter, Tancredo, or Huckabee, why wait? Hit them now and let their ship sink. If it's Giuliani or Romney, then perhaps wait. I say this because they seem to be more 'anointed' by the MSM so waiting until election eve would be more dramatic.

[mpackard]

That’s my opinion, too. They will wait to see if he becomes the pubbie nominee, if he does they’ll use it then to help the dem.

[Scotswife]

John Edwards is my guess.
The NY Post did a blind item about it over the summer.

[Red Badger]

That rumor about Edwards has been floating around a few weeks. Must be someone else, and same gender sex, else the LALA Times wouldn’t be so fidgety about it.........

[montag813]

Must be a Democrat. Romney's wife is hot, and Fred is too busy making babies of late. And Rudy doesn't have a working penis. Ron Paul's wife is sick, and he is too decent to do that to her (except perhaps with Suha Arafat).

Could he Edwards. His wife was fat as a house for years, now she has cancer. He has shown he has no morals, after bankrupting every OBGYN in the Carolinas with phony science.

Michelle Obama is dogmeat who refuses to wear makeup, so could be him too. Can't be Kucinich, his wife is a babe who looks like she works part time as a dominatrix.

[Petronski]

Dennis Kucinich being probed by a space alien?

Rhythmically, for three to five minutes.

[GBA]

It can’t be Hillary. Now that Web and Vince are dead, who whould have sex with her?

[montag813]

It must be the rumors about John Edwards and the woman who worked on his campaign!

He should talk with Joe Scarborough about getting rid of such inconvenient problems.

[Spok]

“Well, the headline says “leading”, so we know it’s not Kucinich or Ron Paul.”

I doubt even the LAT considers Dennis ‘the troll’ Kucinich a “candidate”.

[Brilliant]

I’m not sure there is such a thing as a “major” sex scandal anymore. Perhaps not even a sex scandal, period.

[airdalechief]

I agree with you. The MSM has done this in the past before elections. IMHO, if this was a Democrat and a presidential candidate as the story implies, it won’t be printed.

[Mamzelle]

re: Or it could be a Republican and they are waiting to see if he gets the nomination and then nail him.)))

Yup. And who spends a lot of time in California?

[Perdogg]

This is by some moonbat. It’s funny.

[Tallguy]

Could be that they have the goods on Bill Clinton & they aren’t sure how this will affect Hillary...

[caisson71]

That’s the read I’m getting. There would be no ethics consideration if it was a Republican.

[Fritzy]

Why is no one mentioning Fred????

[GSWarrior]

My money is on Fred Thompson....not that there will be anything to the scandal...

[RoseofTexas]

"I think it’s a Republican, or they wouldn’t have mentioned it at all"

I totally agree! One thing for sure it ain't the BEAST666! If it were than THIS so called rumor would have been snuffed out by now. There is no way a communist liberal reporter were oust the SHE-DEVIL...there would be HELL to pay!
