It runs in the family

You may recall that Teresa's baby boy, Chris Heinz, took time out from dating celebrities to help out in Lurch's campaign with a variety of assorted wingnuttery including chatting up the peons on Democratic Underground. The latest news on the Chris front is that Momma has been touting him for a Congressional run and that he has a new celeb "pal". Ho hum - business as usual for limousine liberalism. But the DUmmies are pining for a little of that celebrity stardust to wear off on them - DUmmie FUnnies 03-11-05 ("Chris Heinz for Senate in PA!!!):
When rumors spread a couple of months ago that Chris Heinz was thinking of running for Congress, we all thought it was hilarious since Chris has spent his entire life doing exactly NOTHING except act as a wealthy paperweight. Now comes word of something that overshadows even that in HILARITY content. It is that Chris Heinz might run for the U.S. Senate as you can see in this DUmmie THREAD titled, "Chris Heinz for Senate in PA!!!"
Please run, Chris! I will send a donation!
[Chris Heinz has so much money he should be sending you a donation.]
Me too! Hear that, Chris? Your warchest is starting already. He's got it all and I could really get behind him as the Dem candidate.
[Chris Heinz is heir to a billion bucks and DUmmies want to send HIM money???]
...
Chris Heinz is HOT HOT HOT!!!! He would be ADORABLE to look at on TV. This lady approves!!!! PLEASE RUN CHRIS!!!!!
[Yes! PLEASE RUN CHRIS!!!!! The comedy material would be LIMITLESS!!!]
I'd love to see him run for Hart's seat . . .There's no doubt in my mind that Chris could be a great senator someday, but he probably needs to get a little more political experience and pay some dues before jumping to that level. I hope Chris does decide to run for something because, from what I've seen, he's a very intelligent and well-spoken person. BTW, Chris, are you here lurking among us? What are your thoughts?
[Chris Heinz is probably thinking what it will be like to have a job for the first time in his life.]
I agree! He came to Harvard to speak to students, and in the Q+A thing, I asked "Has anyone ever told you that you look like JFK Jr?" He lauched into this huge story about how the answer was yes, and how he dated gwenyth paltrow
[An intellectual heavyweight that Chris Heinz is but to reach the stature of JFK, Jr., he needs to date Darryl Hannah or Sharon Stone.]
And Chris, not to worry about that icky work thing in Congress. Step-dad has never let it slow down his social pace!
