Without being an expert in Clinton-consiracy theories this seems a break with normal practice

Snopes has, in the past, without fear or favour, gone through a whole rack of urban myths and legends circulated about Presidents or Presidential candidates. I've never before seen them publish an incomplete webpage.

Well, he/she has never seen it, but that doesn't imply they haven't. My sense is that it'll wind up being one of the "multiple truths value" ones, but that they haven't verified all the claims.

Re: Irresistible (4.00 / 2)

I'd put it this way: I don't think there's enough there to call Snopes credibility into question. Some suspicion might be warranted, and we'll see how they deal with it, but I don't think it's some shining example of bias at this point.
