Teresa Heinz back to being Teresa Heinz
Written by: Beck
Throughout the 2004 presidential campaign season, I persistently referred to John Kerry's wife as Teresa Heinz, not Teresa Heinz-Kerry. She had only adopted the Kerry name immediately prior to Kerry's campaign, which I felt said a lot about her character & her opinion of her husband. It would seem
my instinct was precisely correct.
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.
Doesn't surprise me one bit.
