TOWN OF NEWBURGH, N.Y., July 31 -- John and Elizabeth Edwards celebrated their 27th wedding anniversary today, and they and this small upstate town will not soon forget it.
The John Kerry campaign pulled its 10-bus caravan up to Wendy's restaurant to accommodate the vice presidential couple, who had their first date at the fast-food restaurant and always dine there on their anniversary . This is not one they will soon forget because the celebration included John and Teresa Heinz Kerry, Tom Brokaw, George Stephanopoulos, and 100 members of the media.
"So you understand, this is our anniversary. We always celebrate our anniversary at Wendy's," Elizabeth Edwards told the clerk as she ordered her Classic Combo Single.
Ditto for her mate -- but he went with cheese. And John Kerry went for the Chili and chocolate frosty. The power couples certainly caused a stir -- but it was Ben Affleck who moved with a throng. A Democrat and friend of Kerry's, the movie actor said he joined the trip to learn about the political process and not always be around just for the glamorous work.

"Where's the beef?!"

Sorry but Heinz products are nowhere near the good stuff.
Nothing but Del Monte in my fridge!
I don't want any of my hard earned dollars benefitting Heinz/Kerry in anyway shape or form.
Semper Fi
"Ha ha! Look at 'em! The rubes are eating this up!"
Notice: nobody in the picture gives a darn except the camera crew and bodyguards. Just like Kerry's whole campaign.
Thanks for the ping. Thought of you when I read the area they were at.
