PUNTA GORDA (Fla.)-- She could have simply called him a loser. Instead, Margaret Heather Hayes, 35, a Gainesville nurse, used a string of vulgarities to express her opinion of Sen. John Kerry outside a popular Punta Gorda nightclub Sunday night.
The outburst landed Hayes behind bars for disorderly conduct.
Patrons streaming out of Harpoon Harry's had complained to Deputy Chris Gravel about Hayes' drunken behavior, according to a sheriff's report.
Gravel asked Hayes to tone down the tirade, but she kept on hollering about Kerry, using more four-letter words to describe the Democrat.
Hayes was not cooperative when Gravel tried to handcuff her, so he charged her with resisting arrest.
A county judge withheld judgment against Hayes. Case -- and election -- closed.
