Middle America is already in love with Teresa. She's no dour Laura Bush. She reminds people of Jackie Kennedy, with her elegant shawls and dark glasses pushed up over her hair. She uses Botox - why not? - looks much younger than her 64, and definitely would be smashing on the cover of French, Italian or English Vogue.

This strikes me as a very superficial way to judge a woman nowdays. Do they chose candidates in Europe based on their wives "botoxed" good looks?

I caught that line too. And you're right. That is VERY superficial! I thought we moved beyond judging a woman's character based on her looks. So much for all that feminism. Second, what part of "middle America" are these leftist-cheerleaders talking about? Must be wishful projection, my guess.

And what is up with this fascination with the Kennedys?! Give me a break! Didn't the father used to be a rum runner or something, which is how they got their money during Prohibition? Wouldn't he be likened unto the modern-day drug dealer? I just don't get the big, moon-eyed swooning awe of the whole Kennedy, "Camelot" hoopla.

Not sure what Pepe's been toking, smoking, or poking, but he seems to reside in an alternate reality.

If foreigners think Middle America likes Kerry's wife, they are dumber than we thought.
