**WHY** is Rovergate getting some traction?

[Stinky The Clown]

There's something here that no other scandal story about idiot son has ever had ........ a single person.



This story allows the 3MM to play this like both journalists and People Magazine.

As soon as a personality gets involved, ***then*** they can deal with it. And then the sheeple can relate to it. Nuance (Rover's bubbling up of defense) will not sell. It is all about simplicity. Simple concepts for simple people.

This one's simple. Rove. Treason. Crime.

1. So they can say "Oh, we covered that story- now it's old news..."

...after they help Rove manufacture a distraction.

4. Pretty much.... Though I am very surprised...

that they are reporting on this on the heals of last week's terror attack. I thought they would drop the whole thing after that. I'm sure the bushies thought so too.

5. No, actually, I see the story sticking

It may go quiet for a while. But It will be back.

Today it was the stories from the weekend and the madcap performance by young Scotty at the morning press gaggle.

This may get some mention again tomorrow.

Then it will go quite .... until Step Two .... the Indictment.

THAT will keep it going.

2. Another question: How can it help implicate the administration further? nt

6. I believe it **will** implicate others in the cabal

But we have to be patient.

3. Because the suck-ups in the press and people like McCain & Clinton

are beginning to realize that he has demeaned them and their 'product' by getting them to shut up. They are just beginning to realize what an end run he did around them all.
