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.

Good one, but honestly, isn't he aware of ZOOM lenses? Someone needs to fill him in on the dangers of long fingernails, stray nose hairs, and angry ear hairs! It's called G-R-O-O-M-I-N-G, John! You wouldn't want your fellow Americans to pick you apart, would you? (where are those f***ing balloons?)

If it's only in one hand, that means he plays guitar. I heard he likes to play Spanish guitar in his spare time

Oh my God, someone PLEASE tell him to trim his nails! Yikes! With all of that "hand shaking" and "baby holding" to do, he's going to injure someone! He may have earned the purple hearts with those nails.

Wendy's uses Heinz ketchup packets. I've been told that isn't what they use in the in-store pump although I'm not sure how accurate that is.

According to the part of the article:
Heinz Kerry was told that Newburgh was heavily Republican and a local television reporter asked her how she felt "in the heart of enemy territory."

The Edwards with $40-80 million in assets always celebrate their anniversary with dinner at Wendys? That's BS, I'm sure.

He is so pale in this picture.
They must have spray painted the tan on him last night for his conventions speech.
