I think he's thought of pretty well in Mass. he had no problem getting re-elected last time he was up. His wife Teresa Heinz desperately wants to be First Lady, and she's no shrinking violet. I guess that could help and hurt him at the same time.

I'm a little suprised gephart and leiberman haven't been able to raise more money. They're way at the back of the pack, and monsy is what it's all about these days. Then again maybe they haven't gone into high gear yet on the fundraising front.

Kerry staff find they can't keep Heinz bottled up

There's no keeping Teresa Heinz Kerry on a short leash.

The ``John Kerry for President'' peeps are still scratching their well-coiffed heads over Teresa's 20-minute prostate cancer diatribe that kicked off her hubby's $2 million Hub fund-raising 'do the other night.

``She was supposed to warm up the crowd and introduce John,'' said one F.O.J. ``But instead, she started off telling us that, by age 30, three men in 10 will get prostate cancer. I mean, talk about buzz kill.''

Reportedly, the would-be first lady - whose senatorial spouse underwent surgery for prostate cancer on Feb. 12 - defied her hubby's campaign cheeses who argued against the prostate pitch at the Sheraton-Boston cash-a-thon.

``Why keep a negative story alive,'' said another $1,000-a-ticket attendee. ``He's fine and she's the prostate cancer martyr. What's next? Free screenings at campaign events?''

How 'bout a new campaign slogan? ``Bend Over for Kerry.''

Ouch!

Teresa's spokesgal Chris Black said her boss has ``taken up the cause'' and has made similar speeches on the stump, including one to a group of gals in New Jersey last week.

``She does what she does,'' said Black, adding that Teresa, known as ``Doctor T'' to her friends, has always had an interest in health and medicine. ``She wants to save lives.''

Because, of course, every vote counts!
