Andrea Mitchell: Timing of the breaches just "doesn't add up" to there being no political motivation

[marmar]

on the continuation of "Countdown" right now....

She mentioned how the first breach followed his announced candidacy, and the second breach followed the surprisingly large victories in MD and VA.

1. good reporting

although I think some of us had figured that out in our heads. Just bring us the heads of the three people that did it and we will know.

2. She either slipped, this is out of control, or it's full speed against Bush

This is a good controversy. It's amorphous but bad for the right wing no matter how it turns out.

What better way to show people how hallow their legal protections are?

3. The first breach was just after his massive Iowa victory

THey've been caught big time.

corrected.

[johnnydrama]

6. why weren't steps put into place

After the first breach? Isn't there different levels of security on different people?

8. I thought the first breach was Jan 9, right after Iowa.

[malaise]

11. That's correct n/t

[spanone]

12. of course....this is breaching a united states senator's files...could be terrorists???????

[TwilightGardener]

13. They have his Social Security number, and a host of other pesonal data, I imagine.

These people could have done anything with this info.

[biscotti]

14. It is still unbelievable

that at least Senator Obama and the Secret Service should have been informed. They had all his personal information.

[Supersedeas]

15. but that won't stop Condi from denying ANY political motive right away

[annabanana]

16. And yet, and yet. . nothing on the morning news?
