OBAMAGATE?

Is rising-star Barack Obama ALREADY only a shooting star?

Obama may already be involved in a brewing legal scandal that may involve a breech of contract. According to famed gossip columnist CINDY ADAMS of the NY POST, Obama recently and abruptly reneged on a new contract from his longtime literary agent, and then bolted to BJ Clinton's agent - courtesy of Lewinsky job advisor Vernon Jordan.

Do you think this scandal is too small a matter to be called OBAMAGATE?

Maybe; maybe NOT. Remember: book scandals helped bring down two Speakers of the House: Wright and Gingrich.

If Obama cannot be trusted to honor a contract with a longtime agent, should we trust him when he takes the oath of office?

Perhaps NOT.
