Let it not go unnoticed that the question is absurd on its face. Nixon used his political staff for spying, because they were loyal to him and would do what it took to hurt the other guy. Are we to believe that there were zero Romney backers in the presumed-rubber-stamp oversight sections of the NSA? Or are we to believe that the alleged rubber-stamp oversight sections actually do not exist at all, and the NSA operates in a way that is unlike literally every other large organization in the world? Perhaps Obama disappeared all of the Romney backers, because we might as well crank the paranoid conspiracy delusions all the way up to 11?

It’s a fundamentally stupid question in the first place.
