Don't worry - this will be all over the place in no time. Americans across the fruited plain will once again be gagging over their dinners hearing about Kerry's ketchup stains.

[Howlin]

I just talked to somebody in the Senate; they said it's been all over the Hill for the last few days.

[Beck_isright]

"I can't wait to hear Kerry's response....admit, and ask forgiveness..or deny it shaking his finger and blaming Bush."

So it would be in bad form to start mailing chain saw brochures to Theresa Heinz until Kerry responds or should we just go ahead and do it?

[Peach]

According to some reports, it's entirely possible he IS juggling several bimbos. More to come is my bet...

[sarasota]

My daughter said she saw the cover of the Enquirer with the story on it.

[gunnedah]

For more reasons than one I hope this is wrong and untrue.
It even sounds like some trashing from within the Democrat Party for what I consider obvious reasons but I guess it will all come out in the wash.
I think this could be tied into the Hillary express!
The Democrat Party in my opinion is destroying my country and too many of us are not smart enough to see it.
Of course before its over they will hold hands and come together and find some way to blame Bush.
I wish that America would just look and see how they have divided the country and trashed our system but they wont. After this it will still be partisan politics as usual and they are doing something to our country that our enemies couldn't and that is destroying us.
It is a sad day indeed.

[Howlin]

I can hardly believe we're this lucky.

If this ends Kerry, looks like Edwards is it. He will be tougher to beat.

Edwards is more personable but his lack of foreign policy experience would be a major vulnerability in these times. And his total lack of military service largely takes W's NG issue off the table.

[CougarGA7]

Kerry must have one of those little black books.

[Dante3]

For these kind of jobs, don't people usually mail in their resumes?

[Prodigal Son]

Yeah, I haven't really figured the Hillary angle myself. They either want Edwards or Dean to run as sure losers (setting her stage for 2008) or they might sense that Bush is weak. If that's the case, they'll wait to see what kind of waves Edwards makes in the next couple weeks. If they think he's got some kinda shot- she might jump in to make the difference. If not, she'll let him go down in flames alone and run in 2008.

But I think the Clintons would've seen Kerry as a danger they couldn't control so they whacked him with this info.

If they're really behind it- he won't recover. If necessary, the media will be prodded into digging. If they won't- expect more leaks to Drudge.

Again, Clinton isn't stupid. He probably hates Drudge but he would also realize his usefulness (from experience LOL). It would be sweet to beat your rivals with the thing that stained your own campaign.

[Beck_isright]

I did something harsher: "WHY AREN'T YOU COWARDS REPORTING THE STORY ON DRUDGE ABOUT KERRY'S INTERN PROBLEM"

I put that in the subject line because they usually don't read anything beyond that...

[AZamericonnie]

As a nominee, whenever she speaks everyone is going to be reminded Bubba and how he had his own eruptions.

Good point...did you say eruptions? he he

[Timesink]

I'd also like to just put into this thread that this proves what I've always said about the news media: They'll usually side with the RATS, but all bets are off when it comes to presidential campaigns. They all want fame and Pulitzers and "to change history" more than they want a given guy to win. If they come across information that can bring down a presidential candidate, they'll run with it every time, no matter what party the candidate belongs to.

[RoseofTexas]

BOY OH BOY! LENO is overjoyed!!! If the liberal media WHORES won't report it, Leno and Letterman will! YIPPPPEEE, IT'S GONNA BE FUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNN! :)

[Peach]

So Drudge is getting hate mail for reporting.

CNN is getting my mail for NOT reporting.

[mystery-ak]

I think we should all send Kerry Valentine cards...from his secret admirer.

[Mudboy Slim]

"Clinton people work for Edwards -- and you can bet some of those Clark people are working for Edwards today."

On the face of it, Edwards--and Dean--would be the primary beneficiaries of a Kerry implosion. I agree that the HildaBeast is the darkhorse candidate to benefit, though. Does she believe Dubyuh looks weak enuff to beat this November?

FReegards...MUD

[r9etb]

Anybody willing to take bets on how long before Cruella DeVil announces that she's in?

If she's "in," she's in for a brokered convention. No way she'd survive a primary battle, even now.

[GOPCajunLady]

Love it!! John "FRISKY" Kerry!! Too funny :D
