WASHINGTON, March 12 (UPI) -- Democratic front-runner U.S. Sen. John Kerry has launched a new "D-Bunker" Web site to refute accusations or debunk slurs.
The Kerry campaign announced the new web site was operational at Web address http://blog.johnkerry.com/dbunker/. They said it already carried a response and refutation to President George W. Bush's latest TV ad criticizing Kerry.
The Kerry campaign in a statement described the new Web site as "our new rapid response center on the Web. It will serve to debunk lies and distortions both on and off line." They described its purpose as being "to help supporters beat back the right-wing attack machine."
Ever since the Iowa caucuses campaign in the first half of January, the Kerry campaign team has excelled at rapid response rebuttals of attacks on their candidate in real time. The new Web site appears designed to magnify the scale of that capability to help Democratic grassroots activists around the country.
