BTW, did you see Goldstein's riff on Teraysa? <gg>

20/20's Barbara Walters: "A fresh controversy surrounds your husband's campaign, Teresa, but this time it involves you -- and specifically, your refusal to release your tax returns to the press."

Teresa Heinz Kerry: "Yes."

Barbara Walters: "Your husband very publically called for a full financial disclosure from President and Mrs. Bush, who have since complied. Does it worry you, then, that your refusal to release your records -- given all the speculation that your money is helping to finance your husband's campaign -- will make the Senator appear hypocritical?"

Teresa Heinz Kerry: "Well, firstly, I'm not running for public office, Barbara. So I honestly don't see how my personal finances are anybody's business but my own. John and I have a prenuptial agreement, and consequently, we have always filed our returns separately. This is nothing new."

Barbara Walters: " -- and secondly?"

Teresa Heinz Kerry: " -- and secondly, there's nothing I do can to make John look any more hypocritical than he already looks. I mean, we've reached the point of diminishing return on that score, don't you think? And besides, I really do get off on being Johnny's mysteriously wealthy Sugar Momma. I'm like a sassy Bond villianess. And, y'know, how bitchin' is that...?"
