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'...

I started "PictureGate" on this thread.

I have admitted my gullibility.

I have said sorry.

The Picture is a fake all. I fell for it because I know there are real pictures out there. This is NOT one of them.

NEWSMAX Pulls Photo- Confirmed FAKE!

[Salvation]

Nope!

I refreshed the page at Drudge 10 times and nothing new.

[OrioleFan]

Teresa is throwing lamps and ash trays???

[per loin]

My guess: Kerry and McCauliff (however it's spelled) are disagreeing over tactics.

[kabar]

Hillary has decided to enter the race in time for the super Tuesday primaries

[wireman]

With Drudge, the odds are high that it will be a huge disappointment when he finally posts it.

[CollegeRepublican]

"Stockpile of WMD have been found"

Now that would make my day.

[scott7278]

I wonder if the "World Exclusive" is a hint that this "campaign drama" reaches beyond the United States.

News about Vietnam, China, terrorism, etc.?

[samkatz]

Maybe Federal Election Commission finds Kerry breaking the law in the Torricelli affair

the suspense is killing me.


I hope this isnt one of Drudges "false alarms".....

[Snowy]

"I'd like tot see someone from the congressional black caucus Like Maxine Waters."

LOL! **snort!** She is the dumbest person in politics. She single handedly lowers the IQ of dems throughout the country! I wonder if DU realizes how much fun we have at their expense! LOL!

[steveo]

Kerry is gay?

Almost, he's a transvestite.


Brilliant! Kerry as Frankenfurter! Hey Registered!

[governsleastgovernsbest]

"Interesting that he's calling it a "world" exclusive." Stockpile of WMD have been found.

I'd be surprised if that's it. "World" exclusive would seem to mean that Drudge is the only one in the world with the story. And calling it a "campaign drama" suggests it's something internal to the campaign, not an external event like WMD discovery.

[Just mythoughts]

SOros connection?

What exactly is the meaning of the word "ROCKS" to Drudge and/or dims?

[Tree of Liberty]

Just did a forced reload. No pic yet other than the siren.

[floriduh voter]

This week has had so many ups and downs. Now this on a Thursday no less. I can hardly wait. Hope it's something that FR intel geniuses haven't already uncovered here at Free Republic. Free Republic is scooping EVERYBODY again. Elections are our strong suit.

[Conservomax]

Kerry's Wandering Ways???

Those of us from around Boston will remember the stories from a few years back about a young intern coming and going from Kerry's townhouse while The Catsup Queen was out of town HMMMM. That is some dirt.

[TaxRelief]

Is that a guess?

[Miss Marple]

Yes, it does need to be mopped as a matter of fact.

First, the dusting....

>>With Drudge, the odds are high that it will be a huge disappointment when he finally posts it.<<

Another ho-hum Drudge moment is my guess.
