1. Probably held until after 9/11?

I'd think the McCain campaign was doing everything they can to keep it under wraps. According to other posters, the rumors are flying in newsrooms across the country.

I sure do hope it comes out soon.

8. I keep wondering what sort of proof you would need to run a story like this.
The burden of proof would be pretty big I'd think.

12. If the doctor who provided the dx was willing to
risk his license and violations from HIPAA to talk to save his country, that would do it.

I could see that happening if the doctor had a conscience.

17. My first thought was HIPPA too, but what if someone went dumpster
diving OR remember when those reporters were given 30 minutes with his records? What if someone actually saw something in his records? Since the records were publically released, does HIPPA apply?

3. I hope it's not the Raw Story piece on Cindy McCain's penchant for
Vicodin, et al. In my opinion that's not going to have much in the way of legs.

16. The story broke last night... Basically its the rehashed Tom Gosinski, Cindy McCain stuff
John McCain apparently used his power to cover it up.

But and its a big but... this all from the word of Tom Gosinski, no proof, nothing.

It was a big bust, let down.

I'm sure that lonestarnot thought it would be big in her mind. But no one else does
