I am the least cynical person you'll ever meet, but don't think I am stupid enough to believe that a Republican SENATOR being arrested and charged with crimes like Craig remains a secret for 3 months, only to miraculously surface THE VERY NEXT DAY after what amounts to be the biggest presidential campaign scandal involving the most powerful DEMOCRATIC candidate running for president. How convenient? Yeah right.
I was always skeptical of the power of "The Clinton Machine" (as the right wingers like to call it) until this series of events unfolded this week. Now I think we are only seeing the tip of the iceberg of Clinton Power. Its scary.

Sparkles, I agree with you 100%. But that is not what I am saying. What I am saying is that this story somehow remains a secret for 3 months only to surface the day after Clinton gets in big trouble? No way that is a coincidence.

Does seem to be a most convenient diversion, doesn't it...scary?...no, just typical.

I don't think there's any connection at all. Roll Call broke the story on Craig because they've been following it for months, and Craig didn't plead guilty until this August.
IF Hillary Clinton were really in trouble, I might be able to give this some credence, but she isn't in trouble. Hsu is the one in trouble. It's perfectly logical to everyone but those who pathologically hate Sen. Clinton that she wouldn't have knowledge of a crime regarding car theft that Hsu committed years ago and which wasn't even being actively pursued by the police. She is giving what he donated to her campaign to charity, as are others, and there are others, that he has donated to in the Democratic Party. To be honest, I think you are making connections here that have no logical base and are simply coincidence. Lately it seems as though Sen. Clinton has become a catch-all for conspiracy theories of anything and everything, even when the connection has to be manufactured. Pretty much like some people are about George Bush. I don't care for our President, but I don't think he can be blamed for everything and anything that happens just because his name is attached to it somewhere along the line. Sorry, just not buying it. And I am a VERY cynical person.

There is better proof of the Clinton thought police within the Democratic Party.
Notice none of the other candidates attack her personally but let their wives do it.
Without proof that the Clinton camp outed Craig, this point is mute.
Frankly, I think Craig screw the monkey and like the others will find the drain.
So what if the Senate goes Democratic. The President can veto any BS, and the more they mess up the less likely they the Democrats will win in 2008.
The approval rate of the Democratic Congress is now less than 18%.
Isn't that approaching crush depth already?

Okay, do what the rest of us has done. Separate yourself from the senator. He was caught with his pants down, and listen I am a republican, and I believe he did it. Seems everyone is turning into a freakazoid. It is a sign of the times. I AM NOT VOTING FOR HILLARY CLINTON!!
If you agree with me, then their time is coming. They cannot keep on doing unethical things without it catching up. There are a league of Washington D.C. attorneys that are watching their every move. I am a member of the organization, and there is an ongoing investigation of the Clintons.

Not unless Hillary is gay too and that's why Billy boy, was in the round room with his pants at his feet. The wicked witch of DC has the gift to gab. She spreads out the BS as well, if not better than the rest of them. She would not condemn lobbyist and that got her booed. She knows where she gets her money from and now so do we.

You wonder if the Clinton's have power? Just look at the whole Vince Foster thing, or the whitewater thing, or the Juanita Broderick thing, or Monica, etc
