Let me play devils advocate here a minute.
Comments?


Nadine,
Read the book.

It is very comprehensive and will answer all your questions about John Kerry and all your questions about the Swiftvets.

The book is so completely documented it will likely become a required read.

I didn't HAVE to be a black and white record to now be an obscure detail-long forgotten-of a presidential campaign a third of a century into the future.

They could have run the CURRENT John Kerry, and taken their chances. Thus, one wonders what they REALLY think of those chances...

I agree, but they might have made a better overall case.
If they were still asked to recount their recollection of
events & apply available documentation to support their
claims, they might have ended up with a more compelling
account dispelling Kerry's version reality, sans some of
the heated rhetoric. I say this partially based on
O'niell's ability to present a lawyers type brief that
stands up to scrutiny.
