The Kennedy political dynasty is shaking in the aftershock of U.S. Sen. Scott Brown’s earth-shattering election, with a new poll showing U.S. Rep. Patrick Kennedy losing ground as he faces a well-financed GOP foe backed by Brown’s top strategists.
The WPRI-12 poll showed the Rhode Island Democrat with a 56 percent unfavorability rating in his district - a negative that grows to 62 percent statewide.
Only 35 percent of voters in Kennedy’s district said they would vote to re-elect him. Another 31 percent said they’d consider a different candidate and 28 percent said they would vote to replace him, according to the poll.
Republican John J. Loughlin II, a veteran state lawmaker, formally announced his campaign yesterday against Kennedy, saying the son of liberal icon Edward M. Kennedy is out of touch with Rhode Island voters as he seeks a ninth two-year term

Sweet. I will send some dough there and to JD Hayworth. I hope this guy or Buddy can win. Patches is not well liked now. Looks to me like the Kennedys are pretty well hated.

It’s understandable Patty has a low approval rating. He spends more time in rehabs than he does at work.
Love to see him go down.

I was reading about the JFK assassination and little Arlen was right there pushing the one assign miracle bullet along with Ford and the Warren committee.m He’s been a weasel all his life.

Please explain for those of us who were not aware of this. I was a pretty avid coin collector as a kid.

A disgusting man. Read about Ira Einhorn. A leftist who murdered his girlfriend and ran to France for 20 years?? or so. Arlen was his defense attorney. Pure evil.
