She was old and irresponsible.
I feel for someone who suffers from alcoholism. It is a terrible affliction.
Is this author really coming out and saying what reporters are whispering everywhere? That Teresa is an alcoholic?
Hmmm... That would certainly help explain her lack of verbal impulse control.

Nice post. I especially like this:
"To every Kerry tirade during the upcoming debates, all that President Bush has to do is smile wryly, and say “Flip-flop”, “You may have the remainder of my time to speak, John…” "
Wouldn't that be sweet? This writer hit a brilliant idea here IMHO.
Unless this writer knows this is as fact, I find it distateful to imply that she has a drinking problem.
I was going to use the same quote. She was overheard asking some reporters the other day about where the bar was located. And she seems to dance and swoon around is some of the terms I have heard used of late.
I think she may have a problem.
I think the bar reference is referring to her use of language common to a bar - shove it, scumbags, 4 more years of hell, etc.

HANNIBAL, Mo. (AP) - Forget polite sensibilities. Many women along the Democratic campaign trail are telling Teresa Heinz Kerry to keep speaking her mind. To them, the sassy, gabby wife of presidential candidate John Kerry (website - news - bio) is a key part of the package they want to put in the White House.
These women don't care that Heinz Kerry doesn't always follow the etiquette rules for potential first ladies. Like when she marches up to a persistent reporter and tells him to "shove it" or when she tells Republican hecklers that they want "four more years of hell."
Dawn Davis of Muscatine, Iowa, excitedly greeted Heinz Kerry as the tour came through her home state Wednesday. Davis says she isn't ashamed to acknowledge that she's been known to tell people to shove it and go to hell. Just thinking about all the criticism of Heinz Kerry was enough to get her going.
"Women should not feel that they should kowtow to anyone else's option," Davis said in a rapid-fire rant. "I told her, you keep speaking your mind and don't let them change you. They just criticize her because they don't have anything else to hang it on. And that's the truth."
In her adult life, Heinz Kerry has become a powerful woman accustomed to having the leverage to speak her mind. She is the head of the $1.2 billion Heinz Foundation and has a personal fortune totaling hundreds of millions to more than $1 billion, depending on who is estimating. Heinz Kerry usually campaigns on her own so that she and her husband can double the ground they cover in the campaign. This week, she's been by her husband's side as he tours the Midwest by bus...
It seems that, in the space of about 6 weeks, she's gone from box office draw to boat anchor and once again proved the old adage that money can't buy everything.
Agree, I have an ex, who suffered.
That said, I think it is true and I would bet it is booze and pills.
"Teresa seems to have little trouble finding the bar in every stop on the campaign trail – that is her real problem"
I'm stunned! This is just what America needs .. some drunken sot giving her unwanted opinions to a room full of world leaders. America will be a laughing stock AGAIN!
I don't think so. I think the bar is a figure of speech for the limit.
