A hot tip from the Hill:

We are reliably told that the crackerjack Kennedy staff has dug up another damning episode in Sam Alioto’s background. It seems that a boy in his Cub Scout den, who was particularly close to young Sam, declared “Girls are stinky” on more than one occasion – in earshot of Sam at least once. It seems that Sam still attended the offending boy’s birthday party and Senator Kennedy will insist on a subpoena to get a copy of the invitation list if that’s what it takes to get to the bottom of this association.
