Got an e-mail from Josh Marshall on Kerry-intern story
He said it's a rumor no major news org. has been able to confirm, and someone leaked it to Drudge to get it out in the mainstream. He doesn't know if it's true or not, but his contacts at these news outlets still haven't been able to confirm it.

6. He didn't say it wasn't true
He just said it was still unconfirmed.

11. As I recall, Imus doesn't take infidelity lightly
So if Kerry is going to address the rumors on Imus tomorro, would he be likely to admit to such behavior on Imus?. I doubt it.

13. In a followup, Marshall
said he wouldn't be surprised if Chris Lehane was behind this. Says he undercut Clark while he worked for him many times.

14. No surprise. Lehane was working for Kerry when someone "stole" ...
... his laptop with all his campaign strategy, notes, etc. Funny how of all the SUVs in San Francisco, the crooks knew which one to break into and steal a laptop out of. They also knew where and when to do it -- when Lehane was having lunch with Kerry and the then-campaign director.

16. wow, whatta move by someone..
..this should play out interestingly..

i thought this CNN Poll today was quite telling, as to a damage control test... time-warner is nervous i think.

-------------------------------------------------------------
Do you think that personal and private matters should be a matter of politics?

65% YES
35% NO

CNN Lou Dobbs Poll, 2-12-4
-------------------------------------------------------------

i feel like i am watching a train wreck.

18. That's not a scientific poll, mind you.
Drudge is a fucking tool, he's a disgrace to journalism. I wish somebody would just beat the living shit out of the guy to teach him some damn restrain.

I don't think the personal life of ANY, Republican and Democrat alike, should matter unless it shows an extreme case of hypocrisy (see Rush Limbaugh) or it effect the way they govern.

17. If it was about, say, Clinton and trashing AF1, the media wouldn't wait
to confirm.

Interesting that their waiting now.
