Broadwell’s father says she's a smokescreen for something bigger


But Broadwell’s father said Sunday his daughter is the victim of character assassination and implied the bombshell story is just a smoke screen for something bigger.

“This is about something else entirely, and the truth will come out,” Broadwell’s dad, Paul Krantz, told the Daily News outside his home in Bismarck, N.D.

“There is a lot more that is going to come out,” said Krantz, claiming he was not allowed to elaborate. “You wait and see. There’s a lot more here than meets the eye.”

He said he supports his daughter “100%.”

to help him feel less ashamed of her, I intuit.

She was such a winner, now there's not much future there..

Edit: to add daddy/daughter issues must have played into this whole thing (I know, duh)

I bet. They must have had quite an interesting relationship for her to graduate top of class at Westpoint, he must be military as well and quite demanding.

he's going to get the rest of the country to see her as some sort of victim. She wrecked her family. She took classified info from her CIA "boyfriend". She broadcast sensitive intelligence info at a Denver conference. Nope, she's pretty much in a pickle of her own making, dad.

paula suddenly went jealous nuts over a married man about a woman 1000 miles away and it just coincidentally happened right before the election

someone discovered the affair and tried to use it politically in the election?
