Kerry says he mishandled furor over yacht taxes

Sen. John Kerry said he always intended to pay taxes in Massachusetts on his $7 million yacht but conceded he mishandled the public furor over his decision to dock the vessel in tax-free Rhode Island.

Had he paid the taxes according to MA tax laws, there would have been no furor to worry about.
