Hmmmm, sounds like coordination with Moveon.org. That's a violation of campaign finance reform.
Kerry Challenged Over Comments on Foreign Leaders

BETHLEHEM, Pa. (Reuters) - Democratic White House candidate John Kerry was challenged on Sunday over his comments that some foreign leaders wanted him to beat President Bush, but he refused to reveal any of their names.
Reacting to comments made by Secretary of State Colin Powell in a television interview, and a question raised by a persistent Republican at a town hall meeting in Pennsylvania, Kerry repeated his contention that foreign leaders were encouraging his presidential bid because of unhappiness with U.S. policy.
But he refused to name the leaders and said some of the conversations were by telephone, not face-to-face.
"No leader would obviously share a conversation if I started listing them," Kerry told reporters after Powell suggested he name some names or stop implying foreign leaders wanted him to beat Bush.
"I don't think Colin Powell or the president would start listing names of people who had said something critical of something or somebody. I'm not going to do that," he said.
Powell took issue with the comments on "Fox News Sunday," saying, "if he feels it is that important an assertion to make, he ought to list some names. If he can't list names, then perhaps he should find something else to talk about."
