OUT OF AFRICA: KERRY PREPARE RESPONSE TO MEDIA PROBE OF RELATIONSHIP

**Exclusive**

Democratic presidential frontrunner John Kerry is planning a response to a DRUDGE REPORT exclusive which first revealed the frantic behind-the-scenes drama surrounding a woman who recently fled the country, reportedly at the prodding of Kerry!

The nature and details of a claimed two-year relationship, beginning in the Spring of 2001, between a young woman and Kerry is at the center of serious investigations at several media outlets.

After being approached by a top news producer, the woman fled to Africa, where she remains, the DRUDGE REPORT can reveal.

Unlike the Monica Lewinsky drama, which first played out publicly in this space, with audio tapes, cigar and a dress, the Kerry situation has posed a challange to reporters investigating the claims.

"There is no lawsuit testimony this time [like Clinton with Paula Jones]," a top source said Thursday night. "It is hard to prove."

A close friend of the woman first approached a reporter late last year claiming fantastic stories -- stories that now threaten to turn the race for the presidency on its head.

Kerry is scheduled to appear on IMUS IN THE MORNING on Friday. Later he is scheduled to join General Wesley Clark, who, in an off-the-record conversation with a dozen reporters earlier this week, plainly stated: "Kerry will implode over an intern issue."

Reporters who witnessed Clark making the stunning comments marvel at the General's reluctance to later confirm they were spoken -- only to later endorse Kerry for the nomination!

I think today was the first show where I actually heard Rush happy in ages. And I mean in a gloatful, gleeful way, like the old caller abortion days.

Question: I understand so far it's an affair and the woman left the country, but what are the "shocking" stories beyond that which threaten to make Kerry "implode." So far we see reference to an "intern." Frankly, if the affair is over you need an explanation of why this is a problem that disqualifies him from office. I'm not being jaded about the affair itself, but there needs to be some additionally troubling circumstance that affects him as a public official.

[dictatorMA]

He'll use IMUS to read his prepared "statement". IMUS will tell everyone "Whats the big deal and why are we talking about this".. It will be a complete repeat of Clinton before impeachment... Get ready because the same play book from the left will be dusted off and employed with perfection.
This time though it AINT GONNA WORK!.. America has had enough of that crap and will not want to go through it again. We finally have a man of honor in the white house.

Iraq?

I wouldn't be so quick to shoot the messenger. See my post 49. If f'n Kerry keeps his appointment with the I-Man it should be a pretty good show. Imus is like a lot of us, imo, he just wants controversy.

Character Counts!

The nuts at DU are pushing Dean again. Jim Jones would be proud.

there needs to be some additionally troubling circumstance

Fleeing the country to Africa after a reporter asks her about Kerry qualifies.

Especially afetr "I never heard of Botox" Kerry's upcoming denial.

All of the rat canidates are perverted socialist baby killing com symp socilaist scumsuckers, it doesn't matter who they put up.

[Howlin]
