BREAKING NEW CLINTON SCANDALS that never made it from print media to air

Or: It's a shame people don't read
I was replying in Hillary Failed to disclose $24 Million of Bill's Income (On the Recommended Diaries list) to the comment in the Tip Jar
Kudos for McClatchy and the Raleigh News and Observer for doint the research and releasing this bombshell before the election.
Kudos indeed but the print media has done a fine job all along. The stories are HOT enough to get to the air but they don't. They might be too complex to put out in sound bites and that might be why it didn't hit the airwaves and captured the attention of the public. Republicans are reading these though and God knows they are good at putting things into eye catching clips or attention grabbing sound bites.
My reply got a little long so now it is a diary
Quickie debate review, undecided voters

We heard Obama did poorly in the debate, almost all experts agreed. He's slipped a bit in daily tracking polls.
Clinton's going negative, risking her unfavorables.
Some say -internal tracking might say she is dropping
Some say-she is winning pretty big.
So maybe those internals show the negative at debate pushed him down and maybe they won't like her much but they make people not vote for him. Especially people who are... sensitive to certain things
The debate brought up the old fears/doubts and raised new ones.Again and again and again. (the abc boys used the double and triple "again" through debate)
So do a quick review on Obama debate questions. What impression might it make? How will it affect the undecided?
PS Obama did give good answers
I have a complex code here:
O means Obama.
Write that down to refer to as you review debate
Is attempted assassination of a candidacy legal?

The media had a hot story.
The clips of Wright's sermons were sure to horrify. What horrible things to say.
This angry preacher attacking America, the government, whites.
You all heard it. Over and over and over we heard it for ourselves.
I've never seen anything like it. There is no defending this.
When Scandals Rain: How Long Until They Pour

Part of this diary was a comment and it was suggested I make it a diary. If it gets posted it will be my first because I type so slowly there has always been another one on whatever my topic.
This is not meant as a hit diary, I am not a concern troll but I am reporting something that has already hit and there is already cause for concern.
All candidates had some finance related possible scandals in waiting. Obama's was Rezko and it had been looked into for over a year and unlikely to be a major issue for November. I saw several brewing for the Clintons that were not as out in the open but assumed they knew how to deal with them promptly.
