Kerry Camp Peeved at 'Leaked Photo'
Fox News ^ | 27 July 2004 | Fox News

BOSTON — The Kerry campaign smells a rat in the widely circulated snapshot that shows its man wrapped head-to-toe in a baby blue outfit.

"This was a leaked photo," Mary Beth Cahill (search), campaign manager for John Kerry, said an interview with FOX News on Tuesday.

No media photographers were in attendance Monday when Kerry toured a facility at the Kennedy Space Center with famed astronaut John Glenn and Sen. Bill Nelson of Florida. All the men wore anti-contamination suits (search).

Asked by FOX News' Brit Hume if a dirty trick was being played, Cahill didn't answer the question directly but said: "What do you think?"

"This was a legitimate tour of a NASA facility and this photograph came out of absolutely nowhere. We were surprised then. We aren't surprised now."

But damn they sure can lie about it.

Actually, I think Kerry looks better in the bunny suit. It covers up his french-looking hair.

Your Dukakis analogy doesn't work for this reason: One doesn't have to wear a helmet to take a tour of a tank. Dukakis only wore it to "look tough" for the cameras. IOW, he tried to portray himself as something he wasn't - a military man.

If Kerry had donned an astronaut suit for this photo op, then you and the others here would be making some sense. He would have been trying to portray himself as something he wasn't - an astronaut.

But he didn't - he only wore what all the other tourists have to wear to enter the crew module. In no way was he trying to look like something he wasn't (in this case, anyway).

Where are the photos of bill clinton coming out of the side-hatch in 1999?

I spent about a year turning the OMRF into High-Bay 3 back in 1990 or so. I did some electrical work in that very whiteroom.

I am wondering who wrote all those signatures on the wall.

"Never happen. The 'Rats are gonna have to shoot her with a tranquilizer dart on live national TV long before she'll have a chance."

Wait- didn't they already shoot her with a tranq dart? did you see her last night? As a former nurse...I saw all the telltale signs of a "medically subdued" patient.

Hi! Its pretty cool you used to work in there. Where I was at the cape was in SAEF-II. And yes we had to wear bunny suits as well. :-) I am fully aware that those are required. However, the dems are the one screaming, not us. We are just having a bit of fun at Kerry's expense. Heck, if you look at my finest page, it even says I dress a little funny. (me in my bunny suit) :-)

If Kerry would just learn to laugh at himself with this, it would poof in one day.

Believe it or not, the response to the release of this photo, when set next to the Sandy Berger 'leak', reveal something about the Democrats.

It seems that when the media gets a story that is critical of Republicans it is just good investigative journalism. The Democrats seem to think that any story (or photo) that is critical of them is a leak. Hmmmmmmmm. . . . .

In other words, the Democrats are inadvertantly confessing to their relationship with the major media; they believe that the media doesn't investigate Democrats; they think critical stories are only the result of the vast right wing conspiracy 'leaking' stories and photos.

I always wanted a space issue to have an impact on a presidential campaign, but somehow I didn't quite envision it this way. :)

The Demo's are complaining because the photo is getting too much exposure. Their real problem is that their candidate is just underdeveloped.
