As noted in the post, that's precisely the Q we should be asking. Why was Sater talking election, not tower, in Nov?

And why did Sater's request for Cohen involvement lead to call to "main protagonist" of anti-Hillary campaign?

Right, a political comms professional makes sense as a contact for an electioneering scheme, not a real estate transaction.

Well, we have a better explanation, so probably not. Unless the Tower was directly tied to a hack-and-leak.
