>> Come on, it was clear that the State Dept. didn't want to feed any allegations that the Obama administration was being soft on terrorism, especially in an election year.

I do not believe Obama would have been reelected had these scandals been revealed in September. I recognize that's debatable, but that's my view. At the very least there is a significant chance of it, because these scandals are far bigger than the 47% remark, and the IRS scandal, in particular, would have countered Obama's attack on Romney's purported tax avoidance.

Anyone who believes there is a significant chance it would have changed the election outcome ought to be outraged. I am; these were no ordinary politician lies. They were blatant, in-your-face, and historically significant.
