Did Breck Girl's affair cost Hillary the nomination?

Former Clinton Communications Director Howard Wolfson told ABCNews.com:

"(T)he Clinton campaign was aware of the issue, but did not try to fan the flames.

"'Any of the campaigns that would have tried to push that would have been burned by it,'" said Wolfson.

"But he says he is mystified about the failure of the national media to pursue the story as it has allegations of other candidates' affairs.

"'I can't say I understand the rules of the media and I'm not sure they do either,' he said.

***********

That this last statement comes from a Democrat is a surprise, and a pleasant one.
