A funny thing happened on the way to 'Swiftboating' John Murhta.

The 'Blood in the water' belonged to the 'boaters!

"Led by Max Cleland, a press conference was held at 10:30 this morning when Max, Fighting Democrat Eric Massa and Mike Lyon, Executive Director of The Patriot Project, denounced the so-called "Vietnam Veterans For Truth" for what they truly are, Swift Boating Wannabees, who are trying to use John Murtha's thoughtful and correct I might add, criticism of the administration's conduct in Iraq against him - not in a discussion of policy but in an out and out strategy of personal destruction."

"Then it was the turn of the other folks to hold their press conference on the same street and a funny thing happened on the way to John Murtha's crucifixion by the neo-nuts."

"Our press conference outdrew their's by 10 - 1. People came from all around the state and the region to stand up and say, "we've had enough." People are finally starting to see that this is nothing more than "same people, same tactics, same strategy, different candidate." It's about time."
