I can't see Kerry filing FEC suit unless he has IRONCLAD info

[DancingBear]

This is way too big a risk if he doesn't have this thing locked up, and I tend to believe he has ALL the ducks lined up.

If you think about this in context of what has happened (or not happened) over the last two weeks, AND if you factor in what Dem_Strategist was trying to tell those of us who would actually listen to him, you'll maybe start to put a few pieces together.

This Kerry fella closes like nobody's business, and if I'm The Boy King right now I'm heading for a a Denny's parking lot and shaking Laura by the neck until she gives up the key to the liquor cabinet.

It is now Day Two of my giddiness - I like it.

1. They would just do it as a matter of course.

I dont' think this is going to get anybody frog marched out of the WH. I do think the Valerie Plame thing will. I just hope it happens by the election.

2. it's not a suit, it's a complaint

I'm thinking there a difference

4. I don't know the answer to that

Is it merely an issue of terminology, or can one file either a "complaint" or a "suit" with the FEC?

3. I had read some of the Dem Strategist threads ....

But really: I didnt get a whole lot out of them ...

so: in a nutshell: What was Dem Strategist trying to say ?? ..

6. They were a bit cryptic for me as well

But the gist of them, at least to me, were that things were exactly as they (K/E) wanted them to be, and that perceived inaction was merely that - perceived.

Just speculating here, but I would guess that this was in the cards long before today, and that D_S asking us to hold the media's feet to the fire may have been part of the groundwork.

I mean, look what happened to Matthews...

5. Hmmm....

Do you think that Kerry might have a mole in the SBVFT? Maybe one of those guys who praised Kerry years ago only to turn on him now really hasn't turned...but is just gathering evidence?

Now THAT would make my day!

7. I get

the feeling that Kerry likes to let these guys rant and rave and when things start getting real HOT they slap them down with facts and show the public how the WH works. They did the same thing setting up Drudge with the supposed affair. It makes the right wing media and the white house look bad, but man is it tough on supporters in the HOT times.

8. good thinking
