Where is Teresa Heinz Kerry?
Her strong persona and presence was helping Kerry greatly. Why has she been so quiet and in the background lately? We need her now more than ever!

4. Here it is
not really in hiding just out of mainstream

http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/usatoday/20040929/pl_usatoday/heinzkerrystilloutspokenbutoffcenterstage

"Teresa has disappeared, by and large," says Sherry Bebitch Jeffe, a public policy analyst at the University of Southern California. That's the way Kerry's aides prefer it because she is prone to controversial outbursts, Jeffe says. "Every time they let her out, she says something that they don't like."

Personally, I like her style, screw'em if they think she is too opinionated!

7. Utter nonsense
THK needs to be in the limelight if she is to become our First Lady. Nobody wants a surprise First Lady and she needs to be allowed her say and exposure. She can only help JFK.

5. yup, the media won't cover them unless...

24. what're they doing?

9. The reason they're not covering her
is because she's not saying anything "outrageous". Who wants to cover a well-informed woman giving important talks? I hate those media whores.

19. Thanks for saying it ..I thought I was in Freeper Land

for a moment.

THK can say and do anything that she wants to say.

She has not killed anyone,started a war,made Halliburton rich, made Republicans that are poor and middle class think they are "moving on up" and protected.

She is just herself. A RICH woman that has the nerve and the guts and the heart to care about ALL people. That scares the hell out of insecure Republicans.

She STANDS UP for the rights of all people.
Why is it that GW and Cheney can tell lies all day, say FU on the floor of the senate and a RICH woman can't tell a rude reporter to "SHOVE IT?"

The reporters are afraid to report her because she has something valuable to say. The reason they are NOT reporting Teresa, John E.and his wife is that they are I N T E L L I G E N T.

You better believe if they thought they could get people to hate Edwards and Teresa they would have them on the screen all day and all night.
THK

15. That really sexist and an ignorant thing to say
Where I live the men and women bake cookies and all the neighbors share them. Also, nobody I know keeps their mouth shut but they do stand by their women AND men.

21. As mush as we appreciate Teresa's opinionated nature,
her forthrightness and frankness. It does not go over as well on people who know little about her. Teresa would be great appearing on The Daily Show or Real Time. She would find likeminded folks on those venues and could really let go.

"Shove it" and all the other phrases do hurt Kerry because they bring shrieks of outrage from the Bushies. The media then focuses on the shrieking Repugs and John Kerry's message gets pushed to page 13 below the fold.

25. Let's face it
The average red neck in bum fuck USA is not ready to accept a strong, opinionated, sensitive woman like THK. Very sad country we live in.
