As much as you wish that to be the case, I don't see that this fundamentally alters the election.

This tragedy has been used as a political football before we even have all the info yet.

The formal Congressional investigations are not even going to start until after the election.

Reasonable people are going to wait for all the facts to come in and are not going to base their decision on the assumption that this had to be some awful conspiracy in the Obama camp. Obviously the right wing sees that because they pretty much have come to view Obama as the devil himself.

Nobody outside the Fox News echo chamber gives a rat's butt about Benghazi. This is manufactured outrage at its most synthetic.

That will hit him like a brick.
You conservatives have been throwing bricks at him about this issue for weeks now yet not one has struck.

Aren't you kind of tired of beating this dead horse?

Oh, and let me bring this one up again: Where was the outrage of conservatives towards G.W. Bush when thousands of our citizens were killed on our own soil? You did nothing but make excuses for him and you blamed everyone but Bush.

Now, four people die overseas and it's "Impeach the president!"

Why not do us all a favor and channel that faux outrage elsewhere?

What you describe was the Democrat game, history proves it, recent history.
In fact Democrats have the only history of this.


Yeah... There was nothing fishy about Bush v. Gore... Nothing at all.

It would be easier for the Republicans to cry about cheating than it would be to analyze why they lost to a president with a horrible economic record.

It's only happened three times in 56 tries that the loser of the popular vote lost the electoral vote.

If it does happen that Romney wins the popular but loses the electoral vote, there is zero doubt that R's will accept it because we accept the Constitution. OTOH what if Obama wins the popular vote but loses the electoral. In the lefts' own words: 'we will burn this mo*******er down."http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2012/10/30/moveon_ad_has_old_lady_say_were_going_to_burn_this _motherfker_down.html
