She is a very impressive woman, sensuous, honest, down-to-earth, warm, caring. She is rich, but despite her money Kerry would never ever change a policy stance he believes in because of what she might think of what anyone else thinks. He is his own man and has always been. Despite the phony "flopflopper" charge" Kerry is extremely constant. He has only changed one policy stance in the last 20 years, death penalties for terrorists. FYI, I know the truth about their courtship. She came after him, big-time. He was dating Dana Delaney, a beautiful classy eastcoast-bred Hollywood actress at the time. But then John ran into Theresa at the environmental global summit conference in Brazil and he realized that her substance far out-weighed Dana's beauty. Theresa had recently lost her husband, Senator Heinz. She had inherited 800 million. Sure that was a part of her attraction, but the real kicker was the fact that she and John saw eye to eye about the serious issues of the world, and she was at the time a Republican. The fact that John was willing to not take a dime of her money proves it was love and a very important partnership. Those are the best kinds of marriages, the kinds which last. You should respect that, not spit on it and lie about it. Also, a Republican who criticizes wealth is a total hypocrite since your economic policies serve only the richest Americans and you glorify wealth. Also, John could have any rich woman he wants. Between marriages he was known as the eligable bachelor in DC. They were lined up to try and get him. Mainly because he has deeply honest substance. Sometimes Bushies apparently disdain.
