News Max reports that John Kerry might sue the Swift Vets' leader John O'Neill for libel. The Kerry campaign had tried to silence the Vets during the campaign, which ended up backfiring and giving them more publicity than ever.

But proving a libel suit against a public figure is no easy task. Kerry would have to not only prove the charges were false, but he would need to prove that they were made willfully with malice and negligence.

I think delving into whether or not there is any truth to the charges could be a risky strategy.
