Anyone here think Gary Condit had something to do
with Chandra Levy's death, or feel it was just part of a smear campaign against a Democrat?

1. nope, I never thought he had anything to do with it.
But, did the guy who was accused of it ever go to trial? Seems like he pled out.

That was a hell of smear campaign against Condit though & ruined his career.

2. I didn't think so
And still don't. Although there was another woman who was an intern that went missing from that area also.

3. He sure seemed a likely suspect back then
but after learning more about the case, I don't think he had anything to do with it.

5. Unsure but
I dont think it was a smear campaign either, he was quite suspicious to me, and I dont think the republicans had much to gain from going after him, as far as I know he wasnt the RMM on any committee and he was a conservative democrat, in fact a founder of the blue dog coalition in the house, the blue dogs FYI are conservative democrats generally from rural areas.

6. From what I understand, he is hardly a flaming
leftist. He is kind of a slimy little weasel-looking guy to me, but I do feel that he sort of was reamed.

The media love good old sex-and-violence Dem scandals.

7. Oh if he were still in congress

He would be one of the least popular dems on the board, he was quite conservative. He was slimey to me too, I dont care what his politics were.

8. Was wondering awhile back -
What would the "media" (yeah, yeah I know :eyes: )have been able to focus on in the months leading up to 9/11 if they hadn't had Levy/Condit to distract them? Was Levy a MIHOP?

9. Can't say for sure, BUT...
he looked damned scared to me as soon as he would finish smiling for the cameras every time they were around.

10. Condit was a fuckhead of a rep for a democrat but ...
he didn't have shit to do with it IF what we base our conclusion upon is evidence rather than bullshit speculation.
