There’s been speculation that the issue that “staffers” are afraid of the Press digging in regarding the New Republic story (yes, I know) would be drug use. It would certainly fit the candidate’s past admitted use during High School, and be the “explosive” issue that Hillary claimed to have in reserve.

It would also explain the erratic behavior of Obama, perhaps his refusal to meet with the troops at Landstuhl and Ramstein. I.E. he was high at the time. It would not be the first time, given JFK.

What happens if that is true and becomes the “open secret” in the Press?
