So when one party to an alleged affair denies it, you think that settles it? You may be right. Or you may be gullible. Certainly you are gullible if you believe without reservation everything a politician or close associate of a politician says, and stick a fork in any potential story as soon as it is denied. Would you expect the press to drop any investigation of a rumor about Bush having an affair with an intern if the intern travelled 10,000 miles away at the apparent urging of Bush and then issued a denial? This affair of the affair may be false. But to believe it is certainly false on the basis if unsupported denials isn't normally the way the media operate. Time may or may not tell. But time hasn't told yet.

Perhaps the Polier business is done for good. And perhaps not. It's worth bearing in mind that Monica Lewinsky made the same denial: more.abcnews.go.com I don't understand what the Polier parents were thanking Kerry for. And the endorsement of Kerry made it sound like they were reading something written by the Kerry campaign - which I suspect they were. I would say the Polier business is settled for now. Whether it will stay settled remains to be seen.
