Except for the fact that Kerry said Reeve's thanked him for mentioning stem-cell research during Friday night's debate. It means that Reeves called Kerry after 10:30 Friday night when the debate was over, or he called him sometime during Saturday, but in either case I don't believe Reeves was in any kind of shape to be calling anyone. He had an infection in the blood stream which was probably staph. Many folks who are otherwise healthy, let alone someone who is paralyzed from the neck down, die from this condition, and Reeve's heart attack was caused by it because your body's systems start shutting down. You can put this down as more BS from sKerry.

LOL Maybe he was and maybe he wasn't. Neither of us knows one way or the other but I admit it.

Some of you are reminding me of Dan Rather when he said "the documents may be false but the essence of the story is true" (I'm paraphrasing). The Thursday coma story which got this rolling is false. What we have is a Friday/Saturday window where its possible that Reeve left the message on Kerry's cell phone. You need more than hunches or speculation to make the case that Kerry lied about this fairly unimportant point or its going to be harder to prove his bigger lies that we have more evidence for.

I think it's BS too...but unless someone close to Reeves calls poo poo on it (which is unlikely because I'm sure they are all Kerry supporters) this story will stand.

I think many in this country will consider Kerry's political use of Reeves at the time of his death to be a very low class thing to do and, combined with Edwards statements this week, I doubt his campaign will be helped much by any of this.
