I Was Thinking About That Much-Rumored Sex Scandal
And if it is what I suspect it is, or along those lines, this candidate had better have a damn good way to handle it. Or better yet, they'd better get it out in the open, now.

The LA Times & NT Times might be happy to sit on it right through November, but honeys, Little Green Footballs ain't gonna.

9. Try a Google Search
using the words primaries and sex and scandal and LA Times.

And when my source said “everyone in Washington”, knows about it he means everyone in the elite Mainstream media, not just the LA Times, but everyone regularly writing about the Presidential campaign knows about it and doesn’t know what to do with it. And I must admit it really is was juicy if true. But I don’t know if it’s true and I can’t decide if I think it’s relevant. But the fact that “everyone” in the elite media knew about it and was keeping silent about it, is, itself, news. But you can’t report the “news” without reporting the thing itself. Troubling"

With or without intending to (probably with) some DUers have been hinting away, very, very subtly. I'm not sure it's relevant, either, but it could cost some votes among some key demos.

The "gay Hillary" rumors have been around for eons, perpetuated by the same lying goofballs on the right. :thumbsdown:

Why are you coming here with innuendo that sounds like it could be straight from Freeperville?

You heard it here first.

28. I've heard this rumor as well
Maybe that's why Murdoch is so supportive oh Hillary getting the nomination. He's been collecting dirt on the Clintons for years. And I'm sure Bill hasn't been a choirboy since leaving the WH.

13. I think it is despicable that you would attack Hillary Clinton about her personal life like this!
Edited on Tue Jan-29-08 08:39 AM by JVS
Who she has sex with is not our business.

17. No I'm talking about the outrage of scandalmongering about how she fulfills her womanly needs.
It's none of our business what she does in the privacy of her own home.

37. I'm not insinuating that there is a rumor. There actually is one.
If I were insinuating that it was true, that would be another story.

29. What about
Rudy being a transvestite?
Mitt in love with his hair and skin?
McCain never getting enough hugs from Bush?
Huckleberry has a fascination with necrophilia when others mention homosexuality?
