Theresa Heinz Kerry failed in her bid to become First Lady, but she's not giving up on buying her way into political power. "The word in Pennsylvania is that Kerry and other family members are pressing her son Chris Heinz to run for a House of Representatives Seat," says Washingtonian Magazine.

I read the title incorrectly and thought that *she* was running for the seat. That would be a FUN race to watch, lol!

Yippee...

Who knows? His first legislation would be a portrait of her (Terreza) in the halls of Congress, and his second would be to have the carpets in the House of Representatives the color of ketchup red.

Might as well just cut New England off the U.S. and set it adrift -- all it's money can only produce FAR-LEFT SOCIALISTS. Just what we do not need -- the old money in New England goes way back which supported FDR, the daddy of Socialism in America (including the creation of the income tax).

NO THANKS!!!

"Chris Heinz is attractive and photogenic, and campaign funding won’t be a problem," the mag notes.

More democratic style over substance. No word in the article on his experience. Does he have any and does that even matter?

"Chris Heinz is attractive and photogenic"

Well so is Brad Pitt but that doesn't mean he should run for any political office.

Of course, the son should represent the Republican Party just like his FATHER.

Chris Heinz would run as a Democrat. He said he was raised Republican, but became liberal in college, after his father's death.

Which means he's stuck with his association with Terayza and John Kerry, rather than the one that might actually benefit him in PA (John Heinz was a popular and respected Senator, particularly in Western PA).

He is not attractive. He needs to wash the grease out of his hair, shave, and figure out how to dress like a professional.

Maybe he has to much of his mothers influence, that is not a person I would want to be in charge of my state. Or is she (his mother) trying to set him up to be president at a later date.

That's what I was thinking. BUT there is a 2nd choice without taking on a sitting Democrat - Tim Murphy in the 18th District. When I went to vote, Hart who was my Rep. was not on my ballot. They redrew the district lines, split up my rural township in Beaver Co., and I am now in Murphy's district. I know nothing about him except that he is a Republican. I'm not even sure what else comprises the 18th District or who used to represent it, etc.

"He is not attractive."

In more ways than one. Someone should have washed his mouth out with soap about 25 yrs. ago, but then they should have done his mother's too. He posted at the DUmp (or at least somebody who claimed to be him) prior to the election and put most of them to shame with his foul language, which is going some. Plus there is a rumor that emanated from there that he is light in the loafers which if true, would go over in W PA like a lead balloon (really REALLY culturally conservative, even the Democrats.)

Did you ever notice that once you inherit millions you become a Democrat. It's called the Kennedy syndrome. Noblesse oblige I guess.

Before he showed his true colors and I then developed a negative opinion about him, I never thought he was attractive, either--too harsh- and heavy-featured for my taste. He looks like a low-level gangster or cheap gigolo to me.

She's probably eying Melissa Hart's seat for her Dauphin Chris.

Melissa's seat will not go without a fight, IMO, no matter how much the Putz-Gazette get's from Threzzzzzaaaaa.

The Heinz-Kerry's are taking this neo-Kennedy "Camelot" thing a bit too far.

Are they now going to start buying elections for the rotten fruit of their loins, like Joe Kennedy did?

Are we going to stand for another wave of ignorant, inbred louts that gain seats in Congress by virtue of their money and family influence?

Send this greasy monkey back where he came from! He is best suited to accosting Eurotrash golddiggers.
