" if this story was as big as it sounds The New York Post would have broken it."

- I must agree. There are so many pieces of this story which only make sense if there was some sort of "discharge" revision in 1978. Unless someone like the Swiftboat Vets are sitting on some sort of ticking time bomb, this story is DOA - but if there is anything there, we'll know by this time next week.

Exactly finnigan, and allow me to be the first to say that 1) I hope I am wrong and 2) the NY Post missed out on the story of the century and/or 3) Conrad Black has a grander plan and put out some big bucks to get a BIG story that will blow John Kerry away.

The latter is the only real explanation that might explain an October Surprise that would be a REAL October Surprise because what it would be, in effect, is an almost unprecedented media coup by a very shrewd Conrad Black to launch his embryonic newspaper into the big leagues and fast. That is an explanation, I could buy. ;)
