Oh, you bet!  It stinks to high heaven of Carville.  Its more than a little
curious that this popped up just two days after it was announced that Carville
was suddenly a high ranking operative for Kerry, with Clinton's blessing.  Add
in the fact that the retired Col. that Dan Rather says verified this stuff has
stated that he's never seen the documents and that he never heard from CBS
until two days before the story aired on 60 Minutes II, and this on a story
that supposedly was 4 years in the making!  Who are they trying to kid?

It seems pretty funny to me that virtually ALL of the people in a position to
know about this have denounced the CBS claims.  Barnes' daughter, the widow and
son of Bush's former CO, numerous document experts, etc., yet Dan Rather
"stands behind the story."

So far, the only reaction I've seen is that it seems to be pushing Bush's
numbers up as this progresses.  People just aren't buying it, and its making
Kerry look even more foolish.

Reminds me of Gary Hart and the whole Monkey Business deal.
