LOL, okay, if we’re going the conspiracy theory route how about this: The RNC starts next Monday. Romney’s not doing well—the religious right is pissed over Akin, Ryan is tied to killing Medicare & extreme abortion legislation, people still want to see Romney’s taxes, and he’s still a flip-flopper & uncharismatic, tone deaf super-rich guy who’s not very likeable.
Hmm, who would benefit the most right now from a distraction that turns out to be a big fat pile of nothing?
SQUIRREL!!
