Out Of The Frying Pan & Into The Fire

Has Kerry done the Bushies a favor by making this Deaniacal disclosure? One would think so. OTOH, some of his handlers thought he was burying himself by his refusal to fess up.

When he made his “I have heavy cards to play - I'm not going to lay them all out on the table” comment earlier last week, his people thought it was a huge blunder. “As soon as he said that, people were getting calls on their cell phones," a Kerry advance staffer told the American Spectator. "Everyone understood he'd made a huge mistake."

"But then he pulls a boner like this. What the hell cards does he have?" asked an adviser in Washington. "The candidate has been told time and again not to engage in that kind of semi-detailed discussion. But he just ignores the advice and digs another hole we have to pull him out of. At some point, we aren't going to be able to do it."
