That Michelle rumor still bubbling—I say ignore it
A correspondent sent to me and a few others an e-mail containing this link:
Re: Michelle Obama—The Smoking Gun on tapeI wrote back to the group:
I looked at the linked article. The author spoke to people who spoke to people who saw a tape. When the tape is on the Internet, I’ll believe it. I have no interest in rumors that get people all excited and then turn out not to be true.One of the correspondent wrote back:
I think you’re right. This could all be part of some elaborate “head fake” of the Democrats/Leftists. We have to be wary of those sorts of things. Greco writes:
Well, we might know very soon. Because both a Democrat (Bob Beckel on Fox News Channel) and a conservative (John Fund on the Laura Ingraham show) hinted yesterday (Tuesday) that the “bombshell” is supposed to drop TODAY. I think you’re right though. All this talk has a feverish feeling about it that I don’t trust. Neither of them had talked to anyone who actually saw the tape either!LA replies:
I’d say the odds are 20 to 1 against its being real. If it was real, it would have been out there and we would have seen it. It wouldn’t have been preceded by weeks of frantic rumors.N. writes:
People who are hoping for some “bombshell” or other magically to appear and somehow derail the candidacy of Senator Obama are just engaged in wishful thinking. We now have had not one, not two, but three “mentors” to the senator who ought to be completely beyond any public acceptance, and what has been the result?
