6. It already has
It's called Plamegate this time. Just like in '72, it has been ignored only to surface after the election.

5. Watergate?
There is no Watergate, Mr. Cheezus. Who told you there is a Watergate, Mr. Cheezus? Drastic...steps will have to be taken if you do not forget everything you have heard, Mr. Cheezus.

That's my best AssKKKroft impression.

7. Not many Daniel Ellsbergs around
these days.

It'd be called Election 2000.

8. No but every scandal that has happened since would lack a moniker
And just a reminder to scandal naming assclowns: 'Watergate' was not about water.
