When I think of June Lockhart, I think - Lassie.
When I think of Joe Lockhart, I think - gassy.

Panic mode over inexpensive but credible ads is wonderful.

Old Lockjaw ain't gonna do John Fraud Kerry any good.

Kerry MUST sign the SF-180 and release his military personnel record to the public.

Anything less will keep this thing on the front burner all the way to election day in November.

Something tells me the Swift Vets are up to the task. This will, of course, backfire horrendously. What a horrible move. The last thing Kerry needs is to keep this thing in the limelight. Hiring what's-his-face Lockhart will do just that.

Let's see, I'm Joe Public and I have a choice of believing a large group of honored Vietnam Veterans from a range of political leanings and nothing personal to gain...

or Joe Lockhart.

Kerry's sunk.

Sandy Berger hired Joe Lockhart last January when he became aware the FBI was investigating his document theft.

Lockhart should be asked if he's still on Berger's payroll in addition to (formally) joining the Kerry team.

I am suspicious about the timing of this.

John O'Neill is an attorney. From what I've seen of his appearances, I'll bet he's top-notch.

They know what they're doing. I've no doubt they're ready for the Kerry Karnival.

I'm quite certain that O'Neill is, himself, a highly respected Texas lawyer, so hopefully, he KNOWS which good guys can stand by him and the other Swift Boat Vets.......besides, these guys have become as much of heroes to ALOT of Americans as our President has........we're not going to let them down either!!!!! ;^)

Shouldn't there be some kind of Joe Lockhart pout alert on this one? Lockhart just acts like such a big baby. But then after getting upset in the wake of addressing the VFW, that is what Kerry is acting like too.

Sounds like McCurry decided not to get involved, so they went with Clinton's #2 spokesman...

I've heard the new commercial is devastating (reading other freeper responses because I haven't seen it yet). We're in SC so there's no reason to run the ad here - we're solid Bush country.

I had forgotten O'Neil is an attorney but regardless, an attorney representing himself and all that...

I think they are going to stand strong and have great success. That being said, I'd much prefer to focus on Kerry's Senate record and his words and actions after he returned from Vietnam.

From what I gather, the new commercial does just that and uses POWs who felt betrayed by Kerry, and rightly so. I thought it was traitorous.

They're bringing out their most vicious attack dogs. It must be really be hurting. Get ready SwiftVets, the personal attacks are about to get even uglier. It's time to donate to the SwiftVets site again...
