Sources tell the National Enquirer that in 1980--two years before Kerry and first wife Julia Thorne announced their separation--John Kerry began an affair that lasted past the marriage breakup. Kerry and Ms. Thorne divorced in 1988.
The woman in question was dating a prominent Boston dermatologist in 1980, but that relationship ended when she started seeing John Kerry romantically.
An insider close to the woman tells the Enquirer, 'There is a reason John Kerry has fought tooth and nail to keep the records of his 1988 divorce sealed. If those divorce records were ever released, I think the public would get tremendous insight into his character--and that is the last thing he wants to see happen.'
The friend of the woman confided, 'Kerry and his lover both had to work long hours and late nights. It was the perfect cover for any cheating husband.' The woman was not married at the time.
When John announced in 1982 that he and Julia were separating, his lover thought that she would become the next Mrs. John Kerry. As a single US Senator, separated from his wife, Kerry dated up a storm and his lover hit the roof!
Kerry's lover dreaded reading the Boston papers every morning and finding out John was on the town with other women. The relationship ended when she could no longer handle the allegations of Kerry's cheating with several women, most notably actress Morgan Fairchild.
Internet reporter Matt Drudge said on June 27 that 'the race is on in political and media circles to guage the import of Kerry's sealed July 25, 1988 divorce from his wife, JuliA Stimson Throne.
The Kerry camapgin called any divorce digging a game of political gutter ball. 'This is a trash hunt..,' says a senior Kerry source, 'I would argue adamantly that the records should remain sealed.'
The former Kerry lover's confidant added, 'John Kerry will do anything in his power to keep his divorce records out of the public eye. If they were to be released before the election, it could cost him the presidency.

This will only be a bonus on any liberals resume. Diversity.
Hillary on the attack!
One can actually trust the Enquirer's accuracy more than the NYT. The Enquirer gets sued all the time, and their lawyers make sure that such stories are true. (Granted, if the source is lying, the Enquirer is off the hook.)
This wont cost him anything. Thanks to Clinton, personal life issues and vice dont (even though they do) relate to his ability in office
This'll push him up in the polls.....
Hillary is not going to wait 12 years to run for the Oval Office..lol! Looks like the FBI files have been opened
Was that his name?...I was thinking it was one of Clinton's attorney's involved, but that name doesn't sound right...I know it's not Bruce Lindsey...
OK .. I'll admit, it's has my attention
Other then that, it sounds like he's trying to be like the real JFK
If Clinton can have oral sex with an intern in the Oval Office, do you really think an affair more than twenty years ago is going to excite anyone except Republicans who arent going to vote for him any how? Come on...get real. The Dems will take it as a badge of honor. Shows them that he understands them because he cheats too.
But kerry is a democrat. Cheating on your spouse or lieing about something as silly as throwing medals over a fence or changing your mind whenever you wish has no bearing on the mans charector or his ability to lead this nation.
Moved to chat?!
This may be from an unconventional source, but it reports substantiated factual allegations about about a presidential candidate.
I don't understand this. In Washington State where I live, divorce records are public. In fact they tell you to be careful what you put in them for that reason.
Is it different in different states or is it just because he is a senator he was able to have them sealed?
Clinton lawyers
David Kendall Kendall is the Clintons' personal lawyer for Whitewater matters. First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton successfully pushed for him to be in charge of the Lewinsky case. A Rhodes scholar and Yale law school graduate, Kendall practiced civil rights law before joining the elite Washington, D.C., firm of Williams & Connolly.
In fact, if a dem candidate DIDN"T have major theft, dishonesty or corruption in his past, enough to get an honest man to step down if discovered, he'd have to make it up. Willie concealed his medical records (STDs, impotance, advanced drug addiction and hate tatoos) and his Oxford academic records (brilliant grades in communist theory and application, several rapes, expulsion, cheating, theft and abuse of African students). Kerry won't release his military records, divorce records or medical records. Has anyone asked Edwards what records he won't release?
He was the attorney for the National Enquirer the last I heard......he vet's all article for publication.
This is being put out as bait. When anyone criticizes him, it will be a "mean-spirited attack," and generate sympathy votes from the disengaged.
Advice to all on the right who would comment on the affair: Shut up.
Advice to all on the right who would go after the divorce records: Be careful. The MSM will do a 180 so fast from what they did to and said about Ryan in IL you'll be dizzy.
