#1 My theory is that someone explained to Joe exactly what would happen to him (or his family) if he told who had made the offer.
It's the Chicago way.

#2 the transition from warrior to astute politically correct warrior to careful and politically correct functionary to clumsy functionary is well worn

#3 Sestak aside, this is just another in the long list of Obama and his staff's total disregard for our constitutional process.

#4 I'm with Rambler; Sestak woke up to a horse's head one morning ...

#5 -- even after being called a liar by Robert Gibbs --

Mr. Uber Pig is a dullard. First, Gibbs has not refuted Sestaks claim. Gibbs has only given the non-denial denial that WH lawyers have assured him nothing inappropriate has occurred. Second, until there is some formal inquiry Sestak is under no obligation to fill in the blanks. There are plenty of reasons not to support Sestak but to call him a liar and coward over this is bullshit.

#6 The Whitehouse, DOJ, or Congress is not going to investigate this. The best that can happen is that voters will be so fed up with this kind of Chicago sleeze exported to PA is that it will drive voters to Toomey and he will win.

#7 Toomey should be making a bigger issue out of this since the MSM is starting to show a somewhat tepid interest in this scandal.

#9 Toomey should make a big deal out of this felony which most likely came out of the WH (BO, Axlerod, or Emanuel or all).

#10 Nothing to see here, folks. Move along.

#11 This entire affair needs some daylight shone upon it, as somebody is either outlying or skirting the edges ("I did not have sex with that woman")
Personally, I think the WH is the one that needs to eat the bar of soap. And yes, it is unlikely that there will be any invenstigations done ( maybe after November, but not holding my breath).

#12 for what its worth a fair number of the left are interested in this too

for example, Dickerson of Slate, Senator Durbin (IL) and Representative Weiner (NY)
