One of the swift boat crewmen called into Houston talk radio this morning and emphasized that they were a flotilla, they often were no further than 15 feet away from Kerry's boat, and everybody knew exactly what was going on in the other boats and they knew the crewmen on those other boats.
If anyone has gone en-mass with a group of motorcylces would understand the concept. If someone goes down, people "see" it without having to crash.
The one boat question is a Disembling talking point that needs to be NAILED. Paging HANITY!!
