This is just normal campaign stuff these days. I'm not particularly concerned who is behind getting this out, and I'm certainly not interested in wasting energy speculating as to why. For one thing, McCain has the nomination in a lock. There is no scandal big enough to take it from him. Big enough to make him lose in Nov, yes, but prevent him from being the nominee, no. Counting Romney's delegates, McCain is only about 200 delegates short of securing the nomination. Even without Romney's delegates, he's about 400 short, while Huckabee is 1200 short. Huckabee would have to essentially win every state from now on, by very large percentages, to keep McCain from getting the nomination.
It's just not going to happen.

Look I'm a Dem. I don't care if the GOP destroys their candidate but I am wondering why now.
This is not the Dems doing, I truly believe that. I also believe this isn't just put out for he sake of information. Not with Ohio and Texas coming up so soon. there is a reason for all this.
It doesn't matter how many delegates McCain has at the convention if he is scandal ridden and doesn't have a prayer to win, I would hope for the sake of this nation that the GOP would put delegates aside and pick someone less scandal ridden and has more of a chance to win. If you put on someone you know doesn't stand a chance why put up anyone at all?
This release and the timing is just fishy. Everything is done with a reason, there was a calculated reason this is coming out now. The Dems would wait, they aren't so stupid that they would start throwing mud now, I just don't believe it.
Put that with the fact that his aids are coming out with it.... I stand by my previous posts here.
And sometimes being paranoidal and conspiratorial does not necessarily mean you are wrong. nor does admitting it mean one truly is.
