I'm gonna throw this out there:

Is it possible that Mark is right, technically? Hear me out: There are two former members of Team Romney working at Drudge. All over the media, National Review, Fox, Drudge, etc, there was a "Bloody Thursday," obvious coordinated attack on Newt Gingrich.

Is it possible that these Romney operatives, all of whom were obviously in on the coordinated attack, simply abused their positions at the respective news sights? Is it possible that the FOURTEEN negative stories about Newt were put up by the Romney Operatives at Drudge without Drudge giving an outright approval? Is it possible that Elliot The liar at National Review simply put out his false stuff and creatively edited crap about Newt without having given full disclosure to the NRO staff?

Romney operatives are the most vile, vicious, despicable liars and scumbags known to man. I would not put it past them to have ambushed their own publications (Drudge, NRO, et al) in order to try and score a knockout blow against Newt. All I am saying is: it is POSSIBLE that Matt Drudge simply trusted his employees not to abuse their positions and do what they did on "Bloody Thursday?" I guess we'll see in the coming days. One thing that would exonerate him greatly would be to hear that the Romney operatives had been dismissed or indefinitely suspended.

I don't think that reprimand is too much to ask from NRO and Drudge if indeed they were not behind or aware of the coordinated smears. If Drudge announces a reprimand as such, I'll be the first to point out the lengths he went through to defend his integrity. I suppose we'll just have to wait and see if my theory is anything more than an incorrect hunch, though.
