Is "pay to play" becoming the new Nannygate and the old Pot confessional? |
|
Not saying I think pay to play is an okay concept, but I'm wondering if this seemingly every body does it concept is now starting to reach the levels of the past Nanny-gate syndrome and pot confessional round up.
What I'm getting at is that it seems every so often some sort of practice pops up that starts knocking off politicians and mostly because it is the suddenly unpopular thing to be caught doing.
Remember how Nanny-gate started nailing people? Then before that there was the rash of presidential candidates confessing whether they smoked pot in their life time. Remember the idiotic primary debates where that question kept popping up? Remember how a smug Joe Liberman answered?
It just seems that with Bill Richardson pulling his name over this after Blagojevich in Illinois, that this will be the new take them out scandal.

1. I think Republicans have a standard way of dealing with a Democratic President |

And that's to accuse him of whatever they think of, no matter how silly or unproven it is.
