The rather out of touch Theresa Heinz

I heard on Rush Limbaugh today that a Kerry Campaign advance staffer (the dudes that case the events before the cnadidate arrives) had been quoted as saying that they didn't allow Theresa Heinz to go to the NYSE yesterday because it was not a staged event and they would not be able to have any control over Theresa's public interactions. Seems the fuss is all about her "shove it" remark during the DNC Convention last Sunday.

Additionally, Theresa is so out of touch with real people that when she, John Kerry and the Edwards went to an Ohio Wendys to celebrate the Edwards' 27th anniversary, she had trouble chosing something to eat from the menu. Apparently, nothing was good enough for her. She pointed to a picture of chili and asked what it was, ordered it and then ended up tossing it in a trash bin uneaten before the entourage left.

And their wondering where that post-convention bump is...

Great work today with those links.. did you see this one? Burkett apparently was a "charter member" of the Progressive Populist Caucus of the Texas Democratic Party. His lawyer, Van Os, created the group with this Stan Merriman guy. These idiot Dems are helping us connect the dots by themselves. From: "Stan Merriman" Date: Fri Sep 17, 2004 9:11 pm Subject: Bill Burkett and David Van Os vs. Karl Rove Fellow Progressive Populist Caucus Members: Our brother, Bill Burkett is under siege by the Carl Rove smear machine. Bill is a charter member of the PPC and our friend. Co-founder of the PPC with me, David Van Os assures me that as Bill's legal Counsel on a longstanding basis, any assertions that Bill has engaged in "forgery" vis a vis the now infamous documentation of the Bush desertion of duty as a Texas National Guardsman is total smear with the footprints of the Karl Rove modus operandi all over it. Representing the PPC, I stand with both our brothers Burkett and Van Os and applaud their guts to stand up to the right wing slander machine; President Kerry and many of our DNC brethren can take a lesson from our two populist fellow-Texans who have the cajones to look contemptuously in the eye these ruthless cowards bringing down our formerly proud democracy and tell them to go to h*ll. Stan Merriman Chair, Progressive Populist Caucus of the Texas Democratic Party.

There went the Mexican vote!
