I would say that your premise may have some legs with Beers involvement.

The biggest problem is that Kerry does not have the power to get all this to the press and keep pushing it. This is coming from the Clintons because they are the only ones with the power to to get this kind of media attention and keep pushing it on broadcast after broadcast.

Dean is also involved in pushing this story. My guess is that it is a consortium of RATs headed by Hillary because all the candidates have jumped on the bandwagon. If it was headed by Kerry, not all of them would be following along.

I think there are two distinct possibilities other than the Clintons. The involvement of MoveOn (with the commercials) and TruthOut (spreading the lies) to me suggests this may be a trial run of the Deanification of the Democrats. Give the radical wing a try, and if their style of politiking works, run with it.

My other thought is that Wilson has ties to Gore, and the producer of the MoveOut/DNC commercial has ties to Gore, and this may be the Gore camp preparing for a grand re-entry.

Perhaps, but I would submit that all Kerry really has to do is have a mole plant the seeds. From there the NYT, WP, and others pick it up and it's all downhill from there.
