The story is not that Kerry voted on the thing, but that he didn't report the plot to authorities.

Also, IF it turns out he did attend the meeting, then he has lied about it. I repeat: IF he attended as some say.

I concede he may have not attended, but would like the issue further explored in light of witnesses contradicting him.

Credibility is always a fair issue.

The lying part isn't going to win the day. But if these witnesses hold to their story, Kerry is in a whole heap of trouble for failing to report this assassination plot. That's the key issue here.

We need to stay on this one overarching issue. It's the failure to report. Since we have witnesses, this story can be firmly established. From that, we can hitchhike his failure to report the war attrocities he testified to. Then, the entire war hero schtick he has going just disappears, leaving him with only Massachusetts and D. C. for electoral votes.

The part of this story that won't go away is the Kerry campaign's contact with admitted assassination plotter Scott Camill, especially if they hire him, as reported.
