Because, you know, the people, you know, need to, you know, support the selection of, you know, Hillary’s replacement.

Good riddance.
You know, she’s not even, you know, hot.
Sarah makes Kennedy look like a catcher’s mitt.
LOL!!! Now that's funny!!!
Cuomo is a better choice than Kennedy as far as the Democrats are concern. I think that Cuomo would be a better bet to win the Senate seat in an election since he has experience running for a state wide office and Kennedy doesn’t.
Having said that, I hope Patterson picks Sweet Caroline. I think that Republicans could beat the “you know” Princess.

on=one. I really should proofread these posts.
Whoa, that is funny!
Caroline’s a chihuahua...Keep her in her tea cup on Uncle Teddy’s desk...
Nowadays, SPQR can mean "Siempre Potenti Questi Romanisti," or "Sono Porchi Questi Romanisti," The former is a positive assessment of the AS Roma Serie A soccer club (Forever Powerful These Romans"; the latter is an insult hurled by Lazio fans at their Romanisti enemy fans: What pigs these Roman fans are. A little Italian soccer lore here.

I know it has to do with the Roman Empire but sadly do not know it's meaning. Thanks in advance.
Wow that was fast, my answer got posted BEFORE I asked the question! Nothing like FR :o)
S P Q R
“Senatus Populus que Romanus”
“The Senate and the People of Rome”
Motto of the Roman Republic. Lasted 600 years before due to repeated civil war and corruption it was replaced by the Empire.
Ms. Kennedy may have bought into all that Camelot crap...both times.
Her Mama knew better and tried to steer her kids clear of Washinton DC.
