[plain talk]

Who passed the story to Fox, the Kerry side or the Bush side? Whoever did will claim they were the one that brought up the request to sticking to issues and having a clean contest etc My guess it was the President who said this and then Kerry reported to Fox that he said it. That's more typical of Kerry. Lying SOS.

[Just mythoughts]

"Who passed the story to Fox, the Kerry side or the Bush side?"

Most likely JFKerry's moles at Fox played the story and when heard someone called in to set the record straight.

Greta's hubby works for the JFKerry campaign.
