Honestly, I think they are equivalent because we are talking about holding onto info about a predator in their midst. Playing politics with it is playing politics with it regardless of the motive.

I don't think anyone should sit on info like this. For whatever reason. It's beyond sickening.

I don't really have a problem with what you are saying here. BUT, you are the one that suggested that the democrats might have been involved. Right now, all evidence suggests a republican cover-up. There is nothing remotely fact-based that supports the idea of an "October Surprise" and the only reason it is even a part of the discussion is because of a lame attempt by some on the right recently to muddy the waters with baseless speculation for the purposes of taking the focus off the real issue.

So, I suppose it is ok, for discussion purposes, to consider the hypothetical, as long as we remember that it is only hypothetical, and has no basis in fact, whatsoever.
