Wisniewski would not say whom the committee plans to call, but said the unanswered questions - and who holds the answers - are pretty obvious. "There are a lot of possibilities," he said. "With all of the unexplained occurrences, the documents themselves just can't resolve the questions that lay out there."


Americans increasingly prefer Democrats on healthcare: poll 15 Apr 2014 Americans increasingly think Democrats have a better plan for healthcare than Republicans, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted after the White House announced that more people than expected had signed up for the "Obamacare" health plan.
