If the hacker group is telling the truth, which is a huge if, any files on the usb drives here encrypted. The story the group put out is that they are distributing encrypted versions of the files and offering the keys up for ransom. If that is true, the RNC, DNC and Secret Service wouldn't have anything that they could release.
However, even if they had the unencrypted files and the files really were Romney's tax returns (still a huge huge if) there is no way they could leak it and not have massive political fallout. I don't think the Democrats are that stupid, they've seen this sort of thing before. Hell, it was on an episode of the West Wing. Anything associated with stealing, hacking, whatever and the opponents campaign is inherently toxic. That's why I believe that the DNC didn't do anything with the usb drive. It smelled like a setup and probably was. Judah On Thu, Sep 6, 2012 at 10:02 AM, Maureen <[email protected]> wrote: > > Me either.
