This is very interesting. For those who don't know, very often the press accompanying the candidate (or the President on his trips) is limited to sending a feww reporters, who report to the pool when the event is over. The reporters can then use the pool report in writing their own stories. Bill Sammon had some pool reports in his book Fighting Back.

I notice a degree of cynicism in this pool reeport towards Kerry. I also notoice that Kerry's campaign is late, communicates poorly with the press, and inconveniences people for no reason. I also notice that they recognize Kerry's photo ops and phoniness.

How very interesting. I wonder where this pool report came from!

I noticed that tone too! It'll be interesting to read full write-ups tomorrow and see how they compare with what Drudge has.

Don't get your hopes up. The writer was a Washington Timesman.

The rest of the reporters in the Kerry campaign undoubtedly are just as jaded by Kerry's artificiality. They just don't have the guts (or desire) to put it in print -- even in a pool report.
