Josh Marshall has a good article today pointing out that Russian hacking was announced during the election and greeted with ostentatious yawns by Republicans. What he misses is why the Republicans do care now. The post-election CIA announcement includes the fact that the RNC was hacked too, although none of those emails were published. The Republicans are now scared of what Russia has on them. When it was just a question of throwing the election their way, they were delighted, and they certainly don’t want that outcome challenged, but now they are feeling cold Russian fingers on their own balls.
