Passportgate. You saw the word here first. Sorry.

This from the Associated Press:

"Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has told Sen Hillary Rodham Clinton that her passport file was breached in 2007. In a statement from her Senate office, Clinton said she had been contacted by Rice. The State Department plans to brief Clinton's staff Friday about the unauthorized breach.

"The development came just hours after the State Department fired two contract employees and disciplined a third for inappropriately examining the passport file of Clinton's Democratic rival, Sen Barack Obama."

UPDATE:

This is a summary of , with even McCain gettting in on the act. No wonder so many Americans steer clear of passports...

McCain's royal ancestry - 'baloney'?

You may think the big news is the Obama passport breach or the preacher problem, but is being explored while he is touring foreign climes - and not necessarily to his advantage.

The passport furore may or may not turn out to be suspicious: but didn't Bill Clinton suffer a similar breach that turned out to be political? is where the story was first broken.

And the Washington Times has another - a suggestion that the McCain campaign might face its own Ralph Nader.

Just as the Democrats seem to be organising their trainwreck with impeccable skill and judgement, the Republicans decide to join in!
