Gee whiz...trolls desperately trying to bring up the rear.
"I think we're getting a little too worked up over this.
Even assuming Kerry broke the rules, the rules also state, "Neither film footage nor video footage nor any audioexcerpts from the debates may be used publicly by
either candidate's campaign through any means, [etc.]" The DNC has a video up and the RNC has a video up, both paid for independently and not endorsed by the candidates. Kerry does not have any new videos on his site, but Bush does. I can't tell if it actual debate footage, or quotes, but it certainly seems to violate the spirit of the rules.
And, if so, this would be worse than Kerry's acts. Watch for them to start screaming about this at DU."
That is...if you haven't already...
The difference between Kerry smuggling in contraband - and a violation of the rules in using video from the debate is BIG. With the video, Kerry in his usual style can blame others. For his cheating he can't.
His cheating may not be a criminal offense, but anyone who really opposes Kerry would not try to suppress this issue. It fits to well all the character and integrity problems Kerry, the Dems and their MSM supporters are already having.
Nor would those who oppose Kerry claim that absent proof of what the contraband was there "was no cheating." ( See above.."...or other tangible things") Save that spin to the Clintonistas on the Kerry staff.
