Because this came from Lehane I can't see Kerry suriving this......if Kerry were to survive....Lehane will have burned his chance of hooking up with Team Kennedy/Kerry. There is another compontent to this yet to unfold.
Political war is unpredictable, and Lehane is capable of casting his loyalties in a losing direction. I agree, the story has complex ramifications.
Lehane is a Clinton pit bull....there is no losing in this for him.....he is doing his mistresses bidding.
Lehane's future is with the toons.
