The tide has turned with this battle. Listening to JFK denials on the radio, all I could think was that he's just giving the whole subject ever more attention. He is in a no-win situation - ignore it, and it grows; deny it, and it gets more airtime.

Strategery, indeed!

Here's a question that I'm putting out to Freepers who have more than a cursory understanding (which is all I have) of the McCain Feingold Campaign Finance Reform law.

It's my understanding that 3rd parties can not put out campaign ads either "for" or "against" candidates starting from 60 days before the election - which would be September 2nd.

Does this include the 527 Organizations? Would the Swifties be precluded from running their ads after September 2nd?

If this is the case, then Kerry has to fend off these guys for only 2 more weeks. Then they go away.
