Apparently what happened is that Kerry said yesterday (Monday) that Christopher Reeve called him on Saturday to thank him for discussing stem cell research during the debate the night before (Friday). However, Mr. Reeve had gone into a coma on Thursday, the day before the debate, and never recovered, so any claim by Kerry of a phone call on Saturday is thoroughly discredited.
Ah, that makes sense. I remember him talking about Reeves during the debate, though I don't remember exactly what he said. I thought that's when he was supposed to have made the comment that Reeves called him. Okay, kerry made the comment yesterday. In what forum? An interview, speech, or what? I suppose I'll find out as I continue to read through the thread. Unfortunately, I'm doing a couple other things too, so this could take some time.
I guess Reeves called kerry (while in his coma) to assure him that he'll be voting for him November 9 (that's the election day for dems.) Now that he's dead, I guess he'll be voting twice.
