You realize, I mean, c’mon, this Kerry thing has no legs. Zero. It’s not going anywhere. It’s not going to change the minds of anybody. It will not be perceived as important by most; and for those that do, the credit/blame will be on the Republican attack machine.

Both the DNC & the RNC are playing this exactly as they should: they’re “ignoring” it. The DNC knows that it’ll get the cover stories, the spin they need from the real players in the MSM (not the Washington Times or NY Post). The RNC knows (or should) that they can only look bad if they don’t keep quiet.

Note that I am not saying thio story is not important or that it is not a fine bit of evidence as to the kind of person Kerry is. I am also not trying to denigrate any of those (like our host) who are quite bothered by this. I’m just saying it doesn’t matter.
