Kean Campaign Proudly Slings Mud

Matt Leonardo, the campaign manager for Tom Kean Jr. recently likened Kean's attempts to portray Menendez as corrupt to the charges against former presidential candidate John Kerry's military record.

"The similarity between the Swift boat ads and this movie — you have two individuals who have told stories for a political purpose and the facts just don't jibe," Mr. Leonardo said. "And these two individuals were able to get away with telling it their way for more than a decade and a half. I would say it's very similar in that way."

Wow. At least Bush tried to distance himself from such sleazy tactics.
