> I think Kerry will sue to make himself look innocent.
Doubtful. If that was an effective strategy, they'd have
done it without O'Neil suggesting it.
When they filed the FEC complaint, my very first thought was:
Ah, they DON'T have grounds for a libel action.
Case closed.
Actually, they're two separate matters. The FEC complaint alleges election law violations by SBVT and has no bearing on the libel accusation. Even if it did, it would make sense to get a finding from FEC before proceding with the libel suit. This would add credibility to the case.
In any case, none of this is going to happen unless Kerry goes smooth off.
