Update 2:

CAMPAIGN DRAMA ROCKS DEMOCRATS: KERRY FIGHTS OFF MEDIA PROBE OF RECENT ALLEGED INFIDELITY, RIVALS PREDICT RUIN

**World Exclusive**
**Must Credit the DRUDGE REPORT**

A frantic behind-the-scenes drama is unfolding around Sen. John Kerry and his quest to lockup the Democratic nomination for president, the DRUDGE REPORT can reveal.

Intrigue surrounds a woman who recently fled the country, reportedly at the prodding of Kerry, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

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 and the ASSOCIATED PRESS, where the woman in question once worked.

MORE

A close friend of the woman first approached a reporter late last year claiming fantastic stories -- stories that now threaten to turn the race for the presidency on its head!

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.]

The Kerry commotion is why Howard Dean has turned increasingly aggressive against Kerry in recent days, and is the key reason why Dean reversed his decision not to drop out of the race after Wisconsin, top campaign sources tell the DRUDGE REPORT.

Update 3

FROM CONRESSIONAL QUARTERLY'S CRAIG CRAWFORD: 'Drudge item on Kerry intern issue is something Chris Lehane (clark press secy) has shopped around for a long time -- it was one reason the Gore vetters in 2000 shied away from Kerry as a running mate choice -- their conclusion that it wasn't bad enough to disqualify him, except for the fact that they couldn't risk it as they were trying so hard to distance themselves from Clinton's personal failings (note: Lehane worked for Gore at the time -- and briefly advised Kerry during this campaign). The Kerry camp has long expected to deal with this, and have assured party leaders they can handle it'...

Not all that popular if you belive the polls:

"46 percent saying he's doing an excellent or good job and 44 percent saying he's only fair or poor." - Scripts Research Poll - Nov/Dec, 2003.

In the same poll of Republicans Hutchison whopped Perry 46% to 41% for the 2006 primary.

"I wonder whut the honoruble Mark Warner is sezzin' about endoursin' his boy Kerry now?"

I wouldn't be surprised to find that Marky-Mark's doin' the help, too...MUD

Remember when Mrs. Ketchup-Kerry stated a couple of weeks ago that she would only spend her own money in John's campaign "if things started to get personal against him"?

Didn't make much sense at the time, did it?

Now..........

Ok, people, we have real news! on FoxNews.....car chase ending.

CA Police stop suspect after car chase in LA.

For what it's worth---and I just got here, having heard Rush, and haven't read the whole thread---here in SW Ohio, the LOCAL news, WHIO, was touting this story at its top of the hour and half-hour breaks. I'd bet other Freepers heard similar local news, too. The "bigs" can't ignore it if all their affiliates are carrying this.

[CyberAnt]

I think Kerry has already admitted he smoked marijuana. Whether he still does or not, I don't know.

[floriduh voter]

bimbo eruption.

MAY BE HER. Is that a martini on her shirt?

[They'reGone2000]

I kid you not, under her "special skills" it says WELL VERSED IN CIGAR SELECTION

[BJungNan]

Ok, people, we have real news! on FoxNews.....car chase ending.

Funny. They sure have been otherwise quiet on the subject of today's news.

[floriduh voter]

That's who we believe her to be. Actress/model - Kerry's favorite type but Morgan Fairchild, et al wouldn't have anything to do with Kerry so he settled for an unknown.

[Krodg]

No

I hate to trash other females but HOW STUPID CAN THEY BE? I'll now leave it to the media to sort everything out. Whomever she is, the poor, dumb, bleached blonde! They never learn.

[utahagen]

I don't understand your post. What "problem" does Kerry has that somone in Sean's business also has? And why would anybody care if some journalist messes around? Please explain; I'm interested.

[The Wizard]

what is the significance of the fact that the Craig Crawford piece has been removed from Drudge.....

could it mean that it is unrelated to this NEW GIRL

[petercooper]

Is this her?
