   (02-16) 10:00 PST (AP) --   
      
   A statement released Monday by Alexandra Polier, who has been the subject of   
   rumors linking her to Sen. John Kerry:   
      
   "For the last several days I have seen Internet and tabloid rumors relating   
   to me and Senator John Kerry. Because these stories were false, I assumed   
   the media would ignore them. It seems that efforts to peddle these lies   
   continue, so I feel compelled to address them. I have never had a   
   relationship with Senator Kerry, and the rumors in the press are completely   
   false. Whoever is spreading these rumors and allegations does not know me,   
   but should know the pain they have caused me and my family. I am in Kenya   
   with my fiance visiting his family, and we ask that the press respect our   
   privacy and leave all of us alone."   
      
      
   A statement by Terry and Donna Polier, the parents of Alexandra Polier:   
      
   "We have spoken to our daughter and the allegations that have been made   
   regarding her are completely false and unsubstantiated. We love and support   
   her 100 percent and these unfounded rumors are hurtful to our entire family.   
   We appreciate the way Senator Kerry has handled the situation, and intend on   
   voting for him for president of the United States."
