Teresa, you ignorant slut . . .

John Kerry must have had a time trying to convince his arrogant wife to apologize for demeaning the First Lady of the United States.

Even though the US population does not vote for a candidate because of their spouse, today's revelation about the potential First Lady's attitudes towards Laura Bush must give even the most ardent Kerry supporters pause. Four years of Teresa eruptions, while entertaining, will only cause trouble and distractions for a Kerry presidency. If Kerry is worried that his European buddies think that Americans are arrogant and mean spirited he will have to find away to deal with the fact that he is married to the poster child for condescension.

His wife already provides great fodder for those of us who are the "little people." Mrs. Kerry's plantation attitude towards the rest of us makes me want to write checks I can't afford to the Republican Party.

Even though she apologized (through a prepared statement obviously written by a staffer) her off the cuff remark is a window into the soul of the rich that the left hates so much. And so goes this years race. The task of the Kerry people is to find away to shut her up or keep her on message. Who knows what the next ad lib will bring?
