Bob Woodward — who, as host David Gregory cited, is “no stranger to these types of controversies in Washington” — used to be among the panelists on Meet the Press this weekend. Which, naturally, revolved across the scandal-ridden Obama administration. Asked how the president has handled it, Woodward brought to the listing of “Nixonian” references.

“This isn’t Watergate, however there are some folks in the administration who’ve acted as if they need to be Nixonian,” Woodward contended. “And that’s an awfully large downside.”

“Who and the way?” Gregory followed up.
