KERRY MYSTERY WOMAN DATED CAMPAIGN FINANCE CHIEF

**Exclusive**

A woman at the center of John Kerry intrigue dated longtime Kerry Finance Director Peter Maroney, sources tell the DRUDGE REPORT.

When pressed by media outlets in recent week, the Kerry campaign confirmed the relationship, according to top sources.

Alex Polier on Monday denied "Internet and tabloid rumors relating to me and Senator John Kerry."

Rumors swirling around Polier ignited a behind-the-scenes campaign drama.

As first reported in this space, a serious investigation of the woman and the nature of her relationship with Sen. John Kerry has been underway at TIME magazine, ABC NEWS, the WASHINGTON POST, THE HILL and the ASSOCIATED PRESS, where the woman in question once worked.

TIME magazine's Tim Burger and ABC NEWS have developed intriguing elements to the case, sources reveal.

She would joke that she was dating the next president of the United States, says a source.

Polier's flippant remarks and flirtatious manner, according to friends, fueled the intrigue.

In an off-the-record conversation with a dozen reporters earlier this week, General Wesley Clark plainly stated: "Kerry will implode over an intern issue." [Three reporters in attendance confirm Clark made the startling comments. "This guy is going to blow up. Have you seen the NATIONAL ENQUIRER story" [on Kerry's womanizing].

The Kerry commotion is the key reason why Dean reversed his decision to drop out of the race after Wisconsin, campaign sources said.

Is Drudge trying to say that she worked at all of these, or just the AP?

How many 60 year olds would deny having sex with a 24 year old?

LOL! Remember the story of the old Jewish guy who goes into the confession booth at a Catholic church to tell the priest he's been having sex with a 24 year old. Noticing the man's heavy Jewish accent, the priest asks, "Why are you telling me?"

"I'm telling EVERYBODY!"

I think the press should demand that Kerry and the finance chief turn over all their credit card bills, itineraries, etc.

Don't forget dental records! I want to see dental records!

Peter Maroney, Kerry finance director. Maroney honed his skills under fundraising whiz and Democratic Party boss Terry McAuliffe. His resume includes stints with House Minority Leader Richard Gephardt and Rep. Joe Kennedy.

Remember the Kennedy brothers shared Marilyn Monroe - so maybe the Kerry clan is "in" deep together?

I am less interested in how faithful Kerry is to his own marriage than in how faithful Kerry will be to marriage in our society as it has ALWAYS been defined. Kerry thinks he is smarter than all those who have lived before us. He thinks he is smarter than God, who created us male and female. He thinks he is smarter than Jesus, who said, "For this reason a man shall leave his mother and father and cling to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh." That's what I am interested in.

He's saying all those outlets are running investigations, and that Alex once worked for one of them (the AP).

"Lieutenant General Claudia Kennedy"

I remember this broad. She made sexual harrassment charges against someone up out of whole cloth. She was Her Heinous's favorite general.

Very PC, very venomous.

His credibility is on the line. Not mine, not yours, not Republicans. Just his.

But the rest of the media has tagged Drudge as a "right wing site". So a false rumor will be attributed to Drudge, GOP and the vast right wing conspiracy.

Maybe it has nothing to do with sex but alot to do with the finances of Kerry. She may have overheard something or have the proof of something more damaging than sex. Illegal contributions? or payoffs? or....
