I'm going with you on this one.
Kerry has been doing nothing but shoot his mouth off with his standard, knowingly VAGUE, UNTRACEABLE NAME-DROPPING "there-are-all-sorts-of-foreign-leaders-that-I've-had-talks-with-that-look-forward-to-dealing-with-ME-rather-than-Bush."
We also know that he loves to do this sleazy quid pro quo crap that usually involves some sort of under the radar/table, ("you help me, I'll help you,) hushed, veiled threat from Kerry that is NOT appreciated (so much for his social skills.)
Homie (foreign leaders) don't play dat.
Just be patient--if this story has legs and is valid Drudge will be all over it. There is no newspaper in this country he doesn't have contacts with who love to give him the scoop...That "developing...." is money in the bank for the newspaper he is linking to.
