A campaign convenience is no more. According to The Washington Times, Teresa Heinz, the erstwhile Teresa Heinz Kerry, has stopped using the last name of her husband, Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry, last year's Democrat presidential nominee. Preceding its Women Who Make a Difference Awards dinner next month, the National Council for Research on Women is featuring "a conversation with Teresa Heinz," according to a release from the organization. The council failed to mention the final half of the Fox Chapel ketchup heiress' formerly elongated last name in several other references. "I just checked and she no longer uses her (entire) last name; only during the (presidential) campaign did she use Kerry," campaign spokeswoman Tamara Rodriguez Reichberg said.

Did John Kerry win the Harvard Hasty Pudding prize?
She thinks she's still married to a dead Republican.
As far as I know SHE has never used Kerry as her last name. The media used it during the campaign, but she never legally took his name.
It's the same ruse Hillary did during the Clinton years. All during the campaign Hillary was always referred to in every report as "Hillary Clinton". Moments after the election she released a press statement dictating that henceforth she should be referred to as "Hillary Rodham-Clinton".
What is it with these lying, snake Democrats that always use deception in their ongoing attempt to snooker the public? Of course, the media NEVER raises any questions, but loyally cover their tracks for them.
She was forced into using the hyphenated Heinz-Kerry by the Democrat Campaign team. She also commented on changing her name: "Now, politically, it's going to be Teresa Heinz Kerry, but I don't give a shit, you know? There are other things to worry about." http://slate.msn.com/id/2092399/
I don't know if it was ever legally changed, and then legally changed back. I think she just agreed to being referred to as Heinz-Kerry for the sake of the campaign image. Which could prove a problem again should John decide he wants to run in 2008! LOL
About Teresa, from the Wonkette, Nov 2, 2004 (notice how Wonkette spells Heinz!) http://www.wonkette.com/politics/media/they-gave-us-head-third-in-a-series-024712.php
Head: Teresa Heines-Kerry, rich widow Plays for: Kerry-Edwards Is on TV Because: She says the craziest shit Specialty: Loopy, stream-of-consciousness monologues that offend everyone. Distinguishing Characteristic: African-American. . . but not that kind of African American. In One Month Is Likely to Be . . . Counting her money
I can fully understand her dropping the name, What puzzles me is why she hoesnt drop the load that has that name.
Hillary Rodham did not become Hillary Rodham Clinton until the '92 presidential election. If Bill had lost, Hillary probably would have dropped Clinton from her name again.
She can call herself whatever she wants. . . I'll still not buy anything with 'Heinz' on it.
Problems in Purgatory?
GOOD POINT! Something to watch for.
My dog drops loads that look better than either of them.
These loads are probably smarter and smell better LOL
That photo catches the essence - a sow of sows, a blotch and a stain on any country - especially this one...
He's MY dog - of COURSE they are!
Looks like she couldn't wait to "shove it" in Kerry's face.
At least now in public she won't have to pretend she is beholden to John Kerry in any measure at all.
In fact, Teresa and Hillary should probably get together and start a wives club. During each meeting they could ridicule their "husbands" while rejoicing over the fact that they will never ever need the lousy lunks in order to be considered successful.
