10. How do we know it's not the same woman?
I am not leaking false trails. I am just trying to summarize what's been corroborated here on DU. I know the Gore incident has been corroborated, but apparently a DIFFERENT Cuban woman from Houston was involved. Or the same woman with a different name... fancy that.

Accounts I read of the "tapegate" incident (in TNR, I think...AFAIR???)
focused like a laser on how both sides assumed Gore would go for it because the information was provided by a Hispanic woman, assumed to be a Democratic constituency, when in fact it turned out to be a CUBAN REPUBLICAN woman, and IIANM related to Nydia Stone specifically.

Do you really believe my original post was off-base or deliberately inaccurate or misleading?? If so, it should be deleted. I am serious.

Like Burkett, I can be naive at times. I assumed this was all corroborated info posted here on DU. I assumed it was up to us bloggers, up to and including some high-ranking veterans here, to get to the bottom of this in a factual manner before something terrible happens (a news outlet permanently silenced, a nation in thrall of one party, a country taken to war again) thanks to this highly ILLEGAL dirty trick.

Or do you believe a Dem did this? I do not. Even if we're all wrong if Burkett himself did it and is just lying to us, HOW does it hurt us to find that out, when the alternative is to remain ignorant of one of the greatest campaign crimes since God-knows-when?

Am I off-base here? Anyone?
