WASHINGTON -- Teresa Heinz Kerry got a bad rap during the presidential campaign, her husband said Monday.

Democratic Sen. John Kerry, who lost his bid for the White House last November, told New York City radio host Don Imus that incidents on the campaign trail were blown up out of proportion.

"I was really upset about that on a personal level," said the Massachusetts senator during the interview with Imus, which aired on WFAN-AM radio and was also broadcast on MSNBC.

Reports had circulated during the campaign that Heinz Kerry -- who is known for speaking her mind -- could be a bit disruptive.

Seems like they keep running the same story over and over.

[Always Right]

I am certainly glad he doesn't blame the crappy campaign and his liberal politics....

[kittymyrib]

If he doesn't defend her, he won't get his allowance.

Boohoo, I must have missed when he told his fellow dems to stop calling Bush a Nazi.

Suck it up. Your wife's fool and a wacko, and we "little people" can say so. You're not royalty, and that bigmouthed loon isn't the only one who can shoot her mouth off.

What a jerk!

Of course its not his fault, or democrats or liberals. No, No, cant be. Because if it was, then you might have to question liberalism itself, Uh oh, can't have that can we. Our nasty little egos wont allow that.

Kick back and enjoy the show. They are in complete denial with no sign of figuring it out anytime soon.....if ever.

If Osama Bin Laden caused Kerry's election defeat, We should hunt him down and give him a medal.

Sure, Kerry. It was all OBL's fault. You had nothing to do with it. Riiiiight.

I thought Tessa has dropped the "Kerry" from her name again.

If he doesn't defend her, he won't get his allowance.

No man works harder for his money than he who marries it.

Shove it Kerry!

[Jaysun]

I'm now fully convinced that both Howard Dean and Teresa Heinz Kerry secretly work for us.

[mhking]

Just like the typical liberal: not willing to take responsibility for his own actions.

Just damn.

If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

[silent_jonny]

Ha! You're probably right.

[Richard Kimball]

I feel sorry for Mrs. Heinz-Kerry. I never saw her look completely sober, and she always seemed out of touch and deeply unhappy to me. I'll bash Kerry for a lot of things, but defending his wife is a good thing.

[Mears]

I don't mind the guy defending his wife but I'm still thrilled that he lost the election.

Reports had circulated during the campaign that Heinz Kerry -- who is known for speaking her mind -- could be a bit disruptive friggin' booze hound.

[Waco]

Are there any Commies in Iraq who are "notable" enough for kerry to slobber-up too? Worth the trip?

[mystery-ak]

Im tired of Kerry's Blame Game Road Tour.....you lost, now go away!
