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'...

For Drudge to wipe out all of his stories, just for this, may point to it being something big.

MEMRI:Iranian News Agency Alleges Presidential Candidate John Kerry Sends Email Message

This one.

Someone said in this thread that the Tehran time added there name to Kerry's e-mail list and that how they got it.

Kerry didn't just send it to them.

[Callahan]

it was an item in the NY Observer yesterday. They are divided over campaign message strategy. Shrum wants to go with the retro-populist message Gore tried, Ickes wants something different. That's all I recall. I'm sure it was posted to FR.

[Republican Red]

My credibility is not the best right now, but I have always believed that Dean would bolt to a third party out of spite and revenge.

Come on Dean Go Green!

[deadmenvote]

I,m going to take a shower. Will check back

[Celtjew Libertarian]

Even money that this thread turns out to be more fun and informative than Drudge's siren-exclusive.

**devastating info regarding Kerry?**

Yes, I remember that!

[rintense]

I already predicted that this morning. ;)

[StriperSniper]

what MEMRI claims that the Kerry campaign sent a letter or email to the Iranian government.

I'm not sure where that stands, but it might have only gone to an e-mail subscriber at the Tehran Times, so I haven't been getting too excited about that.

[JFC]

nothing would suprise me about the LIBERALS.... they will do anything for power.........

Thank God For George W. Bush and our current administration.

[sinkspur]

Mark Davis, on WBAP-820, just said that he got a call from a Senate staffer that said something would be announced today that "will change the shape of the Presidential race." It concerns Kerry.

It is a personal revelation about Kerry.

A lot of DUmmies are monitoring this thread

Don't wanna let this chance go to waste, then: Hey DU...you suck.

[skip2myloo]

Except for Kerry's bankers, who would care ??

[TommyDale]

Kerry's health problem: They discovered a huge yellow streak on his back.

[Quilla]

I feel for you as this drama could last all day. You could freepmail someone say your IM name, turn your speakers up real loud, hit the hay, and we could ding you when the story breaks.

[TheSpottedOwl]

Nothing on his website yet....

[floriduh voter]

No new news. Now you must clean up the kitchen or do laundry, your choice.

[finnman69]

Attention visitors from DUmmyland!
