It's laughable.

So, which democrat was it that "threw this out there"? And the media ran with it so quickly that the Miami Herald and St Petersburg Times (?) sat on the story for a year?
No matter how you slice it, this particular man engaged in inappropriate conversations with minors. Foley did that. Not the democrats. To blame them for the current problems is ridiculous. Are the democrats saints? Of course not. Are they just as bad? Probably. But, even if there is any merit to this being an October surprise, and I have yet to see any piece of evidence that is convincing, so what? Nothing wrong at all with the republicans getting a taste of the same medicine that Karl Rove has made a career out of dishing out.
