It's a big wet blanket on the Nov. 71 meeting story. It's like Nicosia was faking it all along, or got his price and made it look like he'd been faking it.

The story about the meeting was backed by several witnesses and had other sources. Nicosia's revelation that the FBI pegged Kerry in attendance is what had the Kerry camp finally admit he must have been there after all, but his memory about the event is hazy (he claims--I don't believe him).

At any rate, the story did not hinge on Nicosia.

The easiest way to poison the original story is to create a new story that implicates the opposition. This is just too convenient.
