On Tuesday morning, in an interview on "Good Morning America", Teresa Heinz Kerry defended her exchange with Pittsburgh Tribune-Review Editor Colin McNickle.

Heinz Kerry told the morning talk shows she'll never shy away from speaking her mind. She told CBS she doesn't go out and say things "willy-nilly" for their own sake but will speak up if called upon.

Heinz Kerry caused some controversy by telling a journalist to "shove it" when he tried to question her over the weekend. She's not backing off her comment, saying most people would defend themselves in that situation.

Ron Reagan will also speak tonight, in support of stem-cell research.
