No kidding, but that's all the less reason for him to want it out the week before the convention, no?

[eta: Kevin Drum thinks a Dem leaked it:
  • Oh, and this: despite dark allegations that the investigation into Berger was leaked by Republicans to take attention off the upcoming 9/11 report, I think it must have actually been a Democrat who leaked it. Frankly, if I were a Republican, I would have waited until around the last week of October or so. My guess is that some sharp Democratic operative figured out that this wasn't going to stay a secret forever and decided (correctly) that it was better to get it into the open now rather than later.]

I'm mostly just disgusted that Berger's career is getting trashed for no good reason. The breathless stories on CNN bother me maybe as much as whoever leaked it.
