Well I am not a newbie but I have been thinking of another type of diversion.. bear with me.. put on tinfoil if you must.
Here goes.. WHAT IF, the DNC has written Kerry off already and this is more of a test case to see what and how this would be treated. Like how long would it take to expose it, how would it be done and who would do it and how long would it last.
They would be paying close attention to where and how the exposure occured and who would pick it up and who would buy into it. See how long they could perpertate the lie.
Consider this a test run for the 08 election.
As a result of extensive discussion with another freeper who has been glued to these threads we have consdered what the calculation could be.
See what impact the new media has vs the old media?
Still considering...
Thoughts?
Now there's some thinkers. Looking at the long game. I agree with your thoughts on this issue as they relate to looking beyond the moment.
In keeping with your comment regarding the old media vs. the new media, I have some occasional doubts. Even in view of the tremendous victory here by Free Republic regarding certain well known documents, thanks to several well respected members of Free Republic.
Over the last week, I have been making an attempt to get anyone, and I do mean anyone, interested in something that may be much bigger, but under-reported and apparently not previously connected, according to my own research.
The following links provide information relating to what is connected to whom, and how much money has transferred from one place to another. Think: Kerry. Tides Foundation(Heinz-Kerry), The Communist Party. The WWWP. ...and who is the front for what and where.
A large amount of money is also coming into these organizations from overseas in order to influence this current election. This makes Mr. Clinton and his Chinaman look like wannabe's.

...and follow the money: http://www.opensecrets.org/parties/index.asp

That is just for starters. The Tides Foundation is connected to moveon.org, is connected to Texans for Truth is connected to...
The Communist Party's verbal endorsement of the DNC is only one part of their endorsement. Follow the money.
Although many organizations and individuals, listed as contributors on these sites, claim no endorsement of the WWWP and the Communist Party, they have given, or fronted money to be given, to those parties and to their agendas.
It is the new media...but I often wonder if anyone is listening...

This one is more about Bush than Kerry, but answers questions concerning the President's NG service.
