Christopher D. Heinz said yesterday that he will not challenge U.S. Rep. Melissa Hart, R-Bradford Woods, for her House seat in the 2006 elections.

"Politics is one of the only places in America where it doesn't help to be the eager, young guy," said Heinz, 32.
"I'll wait until I feel like I'm ready to do it, because if I ever did it, I wouldn't do it to get out of it."
.....just as I am underwhelmed with nuanced ennui.....
How....incredibly underwhelming.
Does this mean that dog food beats ketchup. Just curious.

' Just days before the election, Chris Heinz, son of Teresa, said that the “Israel lobby” had undue influence in American politics. Israel, he said, is treated like “the 51st state, sort of a swing state.” Then he called Bush a “cokehead.”
At very least, Heinz’s statement was a testament to liberal hypocrisy. His man Kerry—supporter of a “global test” for America’s defenses—spent millions of dollars trying to convince Americans that we needed “the world” to support us in the War on Terror. But then, on the eve of Election Day, he openly denounced what is arguably a vital part of “the world”: Israel. Heinz did everything short of demand that all Jews leave the country.
In response, Florida, which boasts a Jewish population of well over 600,000, went for Bush. That showed Chris Heinz. (Approximately 149,000 Jewish Americans live in Ohio; over 81,000 live in Arizona; 77,000 live in Nevada; and 66,000 make their homes in Virginia. All of these states chose Bush over Chris Heinz’s candidate.)
According to another New York Times genius, those Jews—and their Christian and Muslim brethren—need to learn to keep their faith “under control.” See this space in four years for an update on the number of Americans who take that advice.
