| Election 2004: Not an Intern, No Relationship w/ John Kerry |
| 02.16.04 (5:45 pm) [edit] |
Issue 2
1. After a week of the not-so-usual Internet rumor mill, Alexandra Polier and her parents released statements denying Alexandra was John Kerry’s partner in an extramarital affair that could damage his chances at becoming President of the United States. Senator Kerry denied the allegation on the Don Imus radio show, claiming there was nothing to report.
[u]Statement released Monday by Alexandra Polier:[/u]
"For the last several days I have seen Internet and tabloid rumors relating to me and Senator John Kerry. Because these stories were false, I assumed the media would ignore them. It seems that efforts to peddle these lies continue, so I feel compelled to address them. I have never had a relationship with Senator Kerry, and the rumors in the press are completely false. Whoever is spreading these rumors and allegations does not know me, but should know the pain they have caused me and my family. I am in Kenya with my fiance visiting his family, and we ask that the press respect our privacy and leave all of us alone."
[u]Statement by Terry and Donna Polier, the parents of Alexandra Polier: [/u]
"We have spoken to our daughter and the allegations that have been made regarding her are completely false and unsubstantiated. We love and support her 100 percent and these unfounded rumors are hurtful to our entire family. We appreciate the way Senator Kerry has handled the situation, and intend on voting for him for president of the United States." Republicans who fueled this rumor may have made a mistake because the Polier family votes republican.
Apparently Hannity, Limbaugh, etc., just lost their President two votes.
2. Everyone’s asking, when will Dean leave? No one knows for sure, but for the second time in three weeks, a senior campaign staffer is leaving the campaign. National chairman Steve Grossman has not only resigned his post, but is publicly endorsing Sen. John Kerry. Oddly enough, the former Governor claims he hadn’t heard from Grossman since he publicly admitted Dean should bow out if he does not win Wisconsin.
According to the latest Zogby poll, Kerry sits upon a 24-point lead over Dean in Wisconsin. Nevertheless, Dean promises to continue on.
Dean said his largely Internet-based organization of hundreds of thousands of online backers "put some spine in the Democratic Party" by challenging it on matters from health care to the Iraq war. Meanwhile, behind the scenes, key Dean advisors are exploring ways to use their vast Internet machine to support the Democratic nominee and campaign against Bush. This would be in line with the advice of his former national campaign chair Joe Trippi, who urged Dean not to turn over his supporter lists to the DNC.
3. Prez George W. Bush, there isn’t much positive news to report. Bush released his military records in an attempt to prove he met all the requirements of him in Alabama. However some have poignantly questioned his apparent lack of flights. Remember, Bush Jr. was a pilot for the Air National Guard. Perhaps Bush is better suited staying removing himself from the Vietnam War debate that has now being rehashed by Kerry supporters. He won’t win that debate, no matter how many doctored photos of Kerry and Jane Fonda may be released.
As of late, Bush has begun to tout the improving economy and the success of the Iraq war. After all, Libya’s Mommar Qhadafi revealed his not-so-secret weapons programs and will begin destroying all weapons and stopping all programs. It appears there will be an ensuing normalization of relations between Libya and the U.S. Its safe to assume financial aid will follow.
But Bush should be careful here, Libya may have just done what the administration claims North Korea is trying to do. Black mail the western world for support and aid.

I happened to be reading this at the same time as billhobbs.com's blog. So I'm going to quote this part:
UPDATE: Kevin Drum over at CalPundit says we can "stick a fork in" the Kerry-affair rumor because Kerry denied it, the girl denied it, and the girl's parents denied it.
So - a lack of evidence for the accusation, and a lack of witnesses to corroborate the story means that we must believe the accused? Okay - well - it sure would've been nice, Kevin, if you had applied the same standards to the Bush AWOL story and the Dan Burkett sidebar. For Kevin and the members of The Cult of Bush Was AWOL, no evidence+no witnesses+a denial = Kerry told the truth, while no evidence+no witnesses+a denial = "BUSH LIED! BUSH SANITIZED HIS RECORDS! BUSH WAS AWOL!"
