#3 Jeesh. I'm not sure who gets the Most Silly Blather award. Should it be Caroline Kennedy because um, you know? Or should it be the woman who wrote this column? Could she be any more lame?

She was gaga over Caroline and gushed over what a great senator she would make until she actually found out something about her. Well actually she still doesn't know anything about her other than her name and that she isn't a good public speaker.

Caroline is indeed dead if the party faithful such as this one are willing to admit that she is an embarrassment. ALL of the living Kennedy's are an embarrassment no less so than, you know, Caroline.

When the slavishly faithful party hacks feel inspired to attack like this one has done, you KNOW that Caroline has been dumped by the party powerful for someone else.

#5 Me, I am enjoying watching all those pundits who were already breaking out the knee-pads and palm branches and singing "Hosannah"! Another Kennedy is among us!" pretzel themselves into knots, trying to explain why Princess Caroline is qualified to take a place in the Senate... but that Sarah Palin was unqualified for the VP's slot.
Guess we're not quite as ready to institute a hereditary nobility/ruling class as I was afraid we would be.

#10 Just your typical CYA piece from a writer who is scrambling to save whatever credibility they might have left after CK herself revealed how painfully vapid she really is.

#12 Bill Clinton would be an interesting senator, I think.

She would take orders from uncle Ted while he's alive and from his circle of advisors when he dies. Not a Good Thing for the country.

#13 She NEEDS a freakin' telepromter. (and Bill Ayers writing the prose) The Bamberino sounds just like this off the prompter. No wonder they took to each other with so much rapture and wonder !

#16 Having a pilot license didn't save her brother from his self-induced stupidity, now did it?(a neophyte vfr pilot in ifr conditions WITH his family aboard, no less)
And even the exhaulted name of Kennedy is no match for Mother Nature ( or a bridge).

#18 Dead? Don't be so sure. Link on Drudge to two sources close to Gov Patterson claim she'll be chosen. But the Gov, bless his heart, says, "the next junior senator will have to earn re-election on his/her own." And I'm sure you saw the recent poll where 52% approve of her. Never overestimate the voters.

#20 Patterson may be willing to accept only Kennedy family appreciation.

#21 I hope she gets it. The clips of her taking the podium will be a gift that keeps on giving.

#22 Patterson't got to get elected in his own right in a couple years. Meanwhile he's pushing (much needed but painful) budget cuts and tax increases.

Cramming Caroline down voters' throats won't help his prospects. He's still testing the waters to see how much support or animosity she generates.
