No time for affair with Kerry
By Misha Schubert

SHE has the perkiness of a cheerleader and the ambition of a Hollywood starlet, but it's hard to believe Alexandra Polier ever had an affair with US Democratic presidential frontrunner John Kerry.

For one thing, at the time my former journalism school classmate was supposed to be sharing intimate moments with the senator, she was working up to 80 hours a week on student assignments and dating one of our classmates.

If she had time to manage an affair as well, that would have made her one hell of an overachiever.

The former Associated Press reporter, a 27-year-old brunette, made headlines around the world yesterday after the story of an alleged affair appeared on the website of conservative Matt Drudge.

Drudge suggested Polier had "recently fled the country, reportedly at the prodding of Kerry" after a two-year affair that began in early 2001. But no hard evidence has emerged that Kerry cheated with Polier, who is reportedly in Kenya, or with anyone else.

Please note also the time the affair supposedly begain: "early 2001."

Kerry had his prostate removed February 2001.

Maybe reporters misunderstood Polier's dad. Maybe he didn't say "sleezy." Maybe he said "geezy."
