As I remember the event: Carl wrote some comments on his laptop, supposed to be for himself, and "somehow" they became public. May have been about the manicure before the 1st debate in Coral Gables. Is this it?
Could be. My memory is pathetic. I just remember some brouhaha and whining by the Kerry people.
From the NYT:
The article, posted on Friday on foxnews.com, was written by Carl Cameron, the chief political correspondent for Fox News, and included several bogus quotes from Mr. Kerry, supposedly assessing his performance in the debate.
"Didn't my nails and cuticles look great? What a good debate!" the article quoted Mr. Kerry, the Democratic candidate, as telling his supporters in Florida after the event.
"Women should like me! I do manicures," the story also quoted him as saying. It also had Mr. Kerry contrasting himself with President Bush: "I'm metrosexual - he's a cowboy."
