OBAMA, VERA BAKER AND THE NATIONAL ENQUIRER: WHITE HOUSE FAILS TO ISSUE A DENIAL

THIS BLOG HAS GOTTEN ABOUT 80,000 HITS IN THE LAST WEEK ON VERA BAKER - ONE OF OBAMA'S ALLEGED MISTRESSES.

• THE HITS STARTED COMING FROM FRANCOPHONE NATIONS, AND THEN - WHEN THE NATIONAL ENQUIRER RAN WITH THE STORY THE HITS REALLY STARTED TO COME IN FAST AND FURIOUS.

• IN THE MEANTIME, MOST OF THE MSM AND THE BLOGOSPHERE HAS STAYED AWAY FRO THE STORY.

• ONE HAS TO WONDER WHY THE NATIONAL ENQUIRER GOT BACK INTO IT.

• I THINK I KNOW WHY: TO GET A DENIAL FROM THE WHITE HOUSE.

• LIKE THEY DID FROM JOHN EDWARDS.

• IT'S FASCINATING TO ME THAT THE WHITE HOUSE DIDN'T EVEN NIBBLE. THEY PROBABLY KNEW WHAT THE NATIONAL ENQUIRER WAS FISHING FOR.
