Plum line may have distorted the statement from Kerry's office in their title [View All]

Here is the Hill report. Their take is merely that Kerry is open to supporting it. If you look at the statement itself, it has the same position Kerry had last September when he co-wrote the op-ed with Graham. It also does not say that this will give 60 votes. It says Kerry is looking to find what deals could get 60 votes.

Kerry is in the Middle East - so he likely has not commented personally on this.

Rereading the Plumline comment from Smith, her comment does NOT say definitively that Kerry supports the Obama plan, nor does it say what the Plumline title says. It simply says what has been said before that Kerry has shown openness - that he didn't in the past - to allow some OFS drilling if it was what was needed to get 60 votes. This has been true for more than 6 months - going back to when he and Graham wrote their op-ed.

(It is interesting that I did read the Plumline article and did not catch that their title went beyond the statement that Whitney Smith put out. This makes sense as Senator Kerry is in the Middle East http://www.digtriad.com/news/national_world/article.aspx?storyid=139771&catid=175 and likely did not personally comment. )

Any opinions on whether the Plum line or the Hill reported this straight?
