Poll: Almost half in U.S. creationist
WASHINGTON, Feb. 13 (UPI) -- Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., front-runner for the U.S. Democratic presidential nomination, Friday denied he engaged in an extra-marital affair.
"Well, there is nothing to report," Kerry told the talk radio show Imus in the Morning. "So there is nothing to talk about. I'm not worried about it. No."
The story, widely covered by U.S. and British media Friday, was based on a report on the Internet tabloid site DrudgeReport.com, run by Matt Drudge. Drudge's report alleged Kerry had been seeing a former Associated Press employee who has left the country at his behest.
Kerry is married to ketchup heiress Theresa Heinz.
Drudge also said retired Gen. Wesley Clark, who dropped out of the race Wednesday after poor results in the previous night's primaries, told reporters earlier this week, "Kerry will implode over an intern issue."
A spokesman for Clark, however, told UPI Drudge's reporting of his comments was inaccurate. Clark was expected to endorse Kerry later Friday in Wisconsin.
Also Friday the Chicago Sun-Times reported former Vice President Al Gore knew about the allegations, which was why he endorsed former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean instead of Kerry.
