How long do you think the media will add GATE to scandals?

Watergate was 40 years ago and we still use it. if something happened at the hotel today, i think the media would use Watergategate....either way, i think the Gate will last another 100 scandals (thats 5 years in DC).

Update:

@Abc lol at Gatesgategate

@gomis ya the Anthony Weiner twitters is what brought it up. i saw a Weinergate headline

@samantha - you are right about the meaning...we all know what it means when we see it.

    -Until They can find something WORSE- to replace it with, -Probably in another 20 years or so, -when the 1st "Watergate" Generation- begins to die off...

    Until there is a scandal about Bill Gates' gate obv.

    its catchy and media is all about selling news and makin it scandalous.

    so unless someone comes along and makes a new catchy term, media will stick to it.

    Source(s): maybe even gatesgategate might not stop them.
