Recently, I suggested that what was missing in the US Democratic primary race was raciness.
Well, the Drudge Report, which brought us the Lewinsky scandal, is now pleased to report that John Kerry, the current front-runner in the race, may have what it takes.
This scandal has all the ingredients – a Democrat, an intern, and an apparent cover-up. At this point, it’s strictly rumour and innuendo.
Timing is everything – Kerry now needs to keep the rumour going, yet unproven, until he’s safely ensconced in the Oval Office. If the allegations prove true prior to the election, Kerry will be the new Gary Hart. But if he can keep the whole thing under wraps until he’s redecorating the Lincoln bedroom, he’ll be the new Bill Clinton.
Update:
According to the Sun, who interviewed the alleged other woman, “He invited her to be on his re-election committee. She talked to him and decided against it.”
Woo, steamy stuff.
