Everything the Kerry campaign is doing to try and get at the Swift Boat Vets is turning into nothing but a HUGE PR campaign for the Swifties.

Honest, sincere, seekers of the truth look at both sides in order to see what the big uproar is about. Those that do contrast Kerry and his attack dogs and their rabid attempts to smear the Swifties with the detailed, documented and reasonably presented information of the Swifties.

This is a big time loser for Kerry...as well it should be.

In essence, the Kerry campaign is funding the PR for the swifties.

The best thing Kerry could have done was to ignore it and mitigate the damage to what the Swifites could afford themselves.

But Kerry and his ilk love a lie and so they must attack...and thereby bring more and more attention to the issue...and to the truth.

Then there is that "little matter" of the MIA Senate committe that J F'n Kerry was on

Then the Columbian drug interdiction Senate commttee...another J F'n Kerry resume enhancer

So I see Swiftie ads Nos 3 and 4 in the pipe line.

I heard a lady on TV, I believe she was supporting Kerry but I'm positive, say something to the effect that we may never know the whole truth about all the allegations. People will just have to listen to both sides and make up their own minds.

In this situation SKerry loses. After claiming loudly that the Swiftees were frauds and liars,and trying mightily to keep them from being heard, if they can't prove that, then people I think, will more likely believe the Swiftees.

I truly expected them to do so. But it shows how much the ad has hurt them in Ohio. They had no choice but to respond.

Exactly. A week or two ago the mainstream media was ignoring the Swift Boat Vets...and now Kerry has managed to make it the main issue of the campaign.
