Clinton's "murder/suicide" in drug allegation

Perhaps the most interesting analysis I've seen of the Obama teenage drugs allegation by the Clinton camp is that it's not intended to help her win Iowa. It's only intended to keep Obama from winning Iowa.

Sure, it's not ideal, but an underfunded and far weaker Edwards winning Iowa would pose a much smaller threat to Clinton and it would diminish Obama's momentum going into the Clinton firewall of NH (where the Shaheen statements were made.)

(And, it appears the Clinton camp is pushing a story that Obama out of state staffers are registering in Iowa. Anything to diminish his Iowa finish.)
