One guy, Thurlow, who's spiel has been that Kerry was not actually under fire when he pulled the Green Beret from the drink, has been compromised because CNN obtained his own Bronze Star commendation for the same incident, and that cititation describes the incident exactly as Kerry and his supporting crewmates describe. The other guy, Elliot is under fire because he has changed his story several times, and now a new story has appeared from an old article several years ago where Elliot talks about what a great guy Kerry is. The rumor is that that the Swifty's new ad, to air tomorrow, will accuse Kerry of a self-inflicted third purple heart, the one that got him out of Nam.

They have been getting traction with this, but things are starting to look like their may be blowback on Bush. We'll see how this plays out. Chris Matthew has been doing a real number on these guys, and the rest of the liberal press smells some blood in the water. A lot of these swifties actually have very little to stand on documentation wise.
