| Is Kerry going to resign from the Senate tonight? |
| 2004-07-29 |
| I don't know that he is, but Orrin Judd makes a persuasive case for why he might want to throw that in to his acceptance tonight. Follow the link and see why. |

| #17 Deacon - The Dem hacks in Mass are trying to derail Romney's potential appointment of a vacant Senate seat. The bad news - they have a vetoproof margin to work with. |

| #15 With the number of votes he's missed this year? If he resigned from the Senate he wouldn't gain any additional time and he would open up the late night comedian comparisons to his non-performance. Not a bright move. |

| #14 Kerry won't resign his Senate seate because it gives him a fall-back position when he loses in November. Besides, if he resigned now the Governor would probably appoint a Republican. He's hedging his bets. I said it a long time ago. |

| #13 The best moment of his governorship (for me) is when he laid me off from the Mass. Dept. of When are we hooking up for amber colored liquids, btw? |

| #12 Raj, I don't know what I'd pick as the best moment of his governorship. I'm torn between him jumping in the Charles River after giving a speech or passing out at Framingham State due to the old "flu like symptoms" while actually giving the commencement speech. |

| #11 sorry, folks -- been listening to the DNC, and was convinced it was 1995... ("wonder if they'll buy this excuse?") |

| #10 It'll happen right after that part in his acceptance speech where he tells us what he ACTUALLY stands for. Good one, dreadnought - see Post #3! |

| #9 tu3031 - don't you mean 'Mr. Amber-Colored Liquid'? I know this is a technical point, but still... |

| #8 Yes, I believe he will resign his Senate seat. It'll happen right after that part in his acceptance speech where he tells us what he ACTUALLY stands for. |

| #7 Snellenr:Nope, not Weld. Big Drunken Red resigned in '97 to try and be Ambassador to Mexico. Mitt Romney's the governor. |

| #6 snellner - Weld's soooooo 90's; Mitt Romney's the new sheriff on Beacon Hill. Not to doubt that Kennedy could fill both seats, though... |

| #5 If Kerry resigned, Massachusetts governor Weld (Republican) would probably appoint Ted Kennedy to fill both of their Senates seats... |

| #4 I'm with Stephen. There's no way in hell Mr. I'm-Importrant-and-You're-Not will ever give up any position of power. |
