How many pro-Clinton super PACs is too many?

STORY HIGHLIGHTS

Washington (CNN) -- A group of pro-Hillary Clinton super PACs had it all figured out a few months ago: One would handle the email list, another the rapid response and another would spearhead the big-dollar fundraising. Strategists touted their cohesion and efficiency, two attributes they admitted were not usually applied to Democratic groups.

But the excitement they created around a possible presidential bid had a somewhat unintended byproduct when a few eager and ambitious young politicos with no connection to Clinton or her aides realized that they, too, could get in on the early organizing game by starting their own super PACs.

So that's what they did.

And while these organizers feel they are just adding their voice to the chorus of pro-Clinton groups, representatives from those PACs with longstanding ties to the former first lady and secretary of state see the new entries as an uncontrollable variable.

And these organizers feel that could siphon attention from other efforts to get Clinton to run.

Right now, there are at least eight pro-Clinton super PACs registered with the Federal Election Commission.

The highest-profile groups -- Ready for Hillary, American Bridge and Correct the Record -- have deep connections to the Clintons and are staffed by longtime confidants who regularly attend Clinton events and receptions.

But then there are the unaffiliated groups -- Hillary 2016, Hillary Clinton Super PAC, Hillary FTW, Hillary PAC, Madam Hillary 2016 and more.

Milbank: Birth of a scandal blaming Hillary Clinton for Nigerian kidnappings

On Fox News last week, Elisabeth Hasselbeck attributed the attack to Clintons failure to put the group on a list of foreign terrorist organizations when she was secretary of state. That perhaps could have saved these girls earlier, Hasselbeck declared.

Rush Limbaugh, on his radio show, suggested that Clinton didnt designate the group as terrorist because its members are black.

Foxs Megyn Kelly floated the idea that Clinton didnt put the group on the list because doing so would have angered them, and a guest on her show said Clinton gave Boko Haram a green light.

House intelligence committee Chairman Mike Rogers (R-Mich.) and others argued that the Twitter campaign raising awareness of the kidnappings, #BringBackOurGirls, was evidence of the toothless foreign policy favored by Clinton and President Obama. Clinton, who along with first lady Michelle Obama participated in the campaign, was derided for trying to fight Boko Haram with hashtags.

Former congressman Allen West, always a step ahead, asserted that focus on the kidnapping is a wag the dog conspiracy by the Obama administration to distract attention from the Benghazi, Libya, investigation (of which Clinton is also a target).

Former House speaker Newt Gingrich called for congressional hearings which would also provide the opportunity to explore whether Clinton suffered a brain injury, as Karl Rove has alleged, and whether she orchestrated the Monica Lewinsky article in Vanity Fair, as Lynne Cheney suggested.

The nascent effort to pin blame for Boko Haram on Clinton is still far from a full-blown Benghazi conspiracy theory. But its worth examining, because it shows how a scandal is born.
