tells Mueller on 31st. 27, 28, 29, 20, 31 = 5 days, no?

(The 27th was a Saturday, and Sandy affected the Government on Monday and Tuesday).

31-27=4

Other than Internet porn, he doesn't know what one is.

Then releases the lame "scandal" about Bob Menendez at 2am on November 1.

It always struck me as off.

Now, to be fair, Drudge often teases complete bullshit and then ends up with something as lame as this. But this time the whole thing looked odd.

The tease was "Sex Scandal to Hit Campaign" - utterly vague.

Menendez (single, by the way) is a well-known womanizer, which is why the reported scandal fizzed out in less than a news cycle. But here's the hypothesis: Cantor leaks this to Drudge, who teases it. Then cantor pulls back hard - no, no, no. So Drudge comes up with the utterly lame Menendez story, which had probably been sitting in a Daily Caller vault since summer.

I would be looking at contacts between Cantor's people and Drudge on October 31.

This thing is weird.

you're right.

Trump's eventual announcement after his teaser was so lame even the right-wingers laughed at it.

This won't be helpful to Republicans.
