Update 2:

CAMPAIGN DRAMA ROCKS DEMOCRATS: KERRY FIGHTS OFF MEDIA PROBE OF RECENT ALLEGED INFIDELITY, RIVALS PREDICT RUIN

**World Exclusive**
**Must Credit the DRUDGE REPORT**

A frantic behind-the-scenes drama is unfolding around Sen. John Kerry and his quest to lockup the Democratic nomination for president, the DRUDGE REPORT can reveal.

Intrigue surrounds a woman who recently fled the country, reportedly at the prodding of Kerry, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

A serious investigation of the woman and the nature of her relationship with Sen. John Kerry has been underway at TIME magazine, ABC NEWS, the WASHINGTON POST and the ASSOCIATED PRESS, where the woman in question once worked.

MORE

A close friend of the woman first approached a reporter late last year claiming fantastic stories -- stories that now threaten to turn the race for the presidency on its head!

In an off-the-record conversation with a dozen reporters earlier this week, General Wesley Clark plainly stated: "Kerry will implode over an intern issue." [Three reporters in attendance confirm Clark made the startling comments.]

The Kerry commotion is why Howard Dean has turned increasingly aggressive against Kerry in recent days, and is the key reason why Dean reversed his decision not to drop out of the race after Wisconsin, top campaign sources tell the DRUDGE REPORT.

Update 3

FROM CONRESSIONAL QUARTERLY'S CRAIG CRAWFORD: 'Drudge item on Kerry intern issue is something Chris Lehane (clark press secy) has shopped around for a long time -- it was one reason the Gore vetters in 2000 shied away from Kerry as a running mate choice -- their conclusion that it wasn't bad enough to disqualify him, except for the fact that they couldn't risk it as they were trying so hard to distance themselves from Clinton's personal failings (note: Lehane worked for Gore at the time -- and briefly advised Kerry during this campaign). The Kerry camp has long expected to deal with this, and have assured party leaders they can handle it'...

Imo, the Fla primaries won't draw dems to the polls because the weather's getting nice and that's even worse than having a blizzard, ya know, spring fever? It will make them even less likely to go to the polls.

It must be demoralizing to even be a democrat but they hang on for some reason.

[cyncooper]

And to expound on my candidate vs. office holder observation: Note the Gennifer Flowers story almost did in fact knock Clinton out until Don Hewitt helped with the Sixty Minutes "Stand by my man" business. The story was characterized as ancient history, two prong attack included tapes being doctored, and the implicit promise to "not do it again".

This may or may ruin Kerry, but the idea it is widely accepted and yawned at is nonsense.

lol

[Lockbar]

"By the way, goodbye to the "Bush was AWOL" story, LOFL"


LOL, how about this one "John Kerry was AWOL from his wife with another woman!" This is the better AWOL story! hee hee hee

[TASMANIANRED]

"Kerry likes thin blondes. Watch him at fund raisers and charity events. His eyes go immediately toward them."

Kerry might prefer thin blonds for extracurricular activities but he would marry Helen Thomas if she had more money than TaRaySa.

[BJungNan]

Not likely the one on the left.

[petercooper]

HERE SHE IS

[New Horizon]

[Revolting cat!]

Tomorrow's headline today:

Kerry's Hist'ry!

[NYC Republican]

Oh yeah, almost forgot about her... She's kept a low profile of late, hasn't she? Wonder why???

[floriduh voter]

I was thinking the blonde way in the back for safety's sake. I'm saying it's her. Blondie in the back.

[KQQL]

[Greg Luzinski]

Basically, Kerry could win over the American people still. What he needs to say is: I already gave my best, and I have no regrets at all.

Geesh!! Who doesn't like thin women?

Oh, that's right. Slick Willie. ~Big girls need love too.~

[Greg Luzinski]

In other words, re. Kerry's breaking sex scandal ... well, that's the surprise of the century.

I have a Fox channel that was talking about the story over the noon hour. It's the one w/the two blondes and a guy. (Good Day?)

Absolutely. If he can put up with Teresa he could put up with Helen.
