(Kerry) Still in Hiding (from the Media)

It has now been one month and four days since John Kerry last answered questions from a real reporter.

Can he go all the way to election day without telling us whether his "searing" memory of being in Cambodia is true? Or why every eyewitness disagrees with his claims of enemy fire during the incident he used to obtain his first Purple Heart? Or why his Silver Star mysteriously has a V for valor, in contradiction to Navy regulations? Or why he won't file form 180 and release his military records? Or why he won't make his journals, which form much of the basis for the book Tour of Duty, public?

Hiding worked for Hillary.

[arichtaxpayer]

He's just playing hide and seek!

How is he planning to survive the debates, which are really joint press conferences?

[vpintheak]

Not gonna happen. He will not be questioned by a reporter who would ask him such things.

> Hiding worked for Hillary.

It's even called the "Hillary Effect",
where the less the candidate says, the
higher they poll.

Kerry is trying to exploit the full
potential of the Hillary Effect.

Won't work.

OR WHY:

Former Navy Secretary John Lehman has no idea where a Silver Star citation displayed on Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry's campaign Web site came from, he said Friday. The citation appears over Lehman's signature.

"It is a total mystery to me. I never saw it. I never signed it. I never approved it. And the additional language it contains was not written by me," he said.

Can he go all the way to election day without telling us whether his "searing" memory of being in Cambodia is true?

Sure. Just like he can go all the way to Election Day with a number of "secret" plans he'll only divulge after he's in office--on Iraq, on energy, etc.

[Use It Or Lose It]

Komrade Kerry has his surrogates on every talk show, every chat show every day. When will one of the hosts or reporterettes ask the surrogates about this? Put THEM on the spot relentlessly until their boss comes out and answers specific questions.

[Reagan Man]

The LMSM will continue to give Kerry a pass on answering tough questions. The candidate that controls the media cycle and the news spotlight, will win the election. Right now that's PresBush. Kerry is still reeling from a poor campaign decision to cease broadcasting a political message to the country. This has left Kerry stumbling around trying to figure out what message he wants to send. The Kerry campaign is in a state of confusion.

[BenLurkin]

Any person who would vote for Kerrry and his "secret" plans either isn't paying attention or just doesn't give a hoot about the future of America.

How long has it been since John Kerry last answered real questions from a real reporter that worked for a real news organization?

[DaveMSmith]

From Kerry's remarks to the NAACP 7/15/04:

As a campaigner, I know a little something about scheduling conflicts and hostile environments. But when you’re president of the United States, you can pretty much say where you want to be. And when you’re president, you need to talk to all the people – and that’s exactly what I intend to do.

[visagoth]

Heh - that's a good find.

[presidentbowen]

And this loser wants to debate every week! Give me a break!

[beyond the sea]

How is he planning to survive the debates

How? I read somewhere here that all the debate moderators are lefties!!!! That sucks. Does anyone know the group of questioners?

[nothingnew]

Good one...just add the conspiracy guy.
