Caroline Kennedy told New York Gov. David Paterson on Wednesday that she is withdrawing from consideration to replace Hillary Clinton in the U.S. Senate, New York media reported on Wednesday, citing unnamed sources.

They try to play it off like she's concerned about her uncle... Uh, she's known about her uncles health for awhile now...

[icwhatudo]

This woman was not experienced and had issues with her underage drinking daughter and her facebook pics...

Huh? Shes a dem and not Palin? Then it was health problems of an uncle.

[Doogle]

...*smiles*, guess the Gov realized people were starting to get annoyed hearing “ya know” 110 times per 5 minute interview

[originalbuckeye]

Maybe she heard her ‘you know’ interview replayed and was too embarrassed to continue. Nah, she’s a Dem.

[floridavoter2]

And I wonder if she got word that Cuomo was going to be picked and she wanted to bow out gracefully. Either way she looks like a fool...

[Sarajevo]

:)In fact he probably did better than any other "nominatable" republican could have. :)

Ha! Did the Senate decide not to confirm Hitlery, and she wants her old job back?????

[tflabo]

Well then....its on to the next highest bidder. Maybe Blago can recommend some bidders for the NY senate seat.

[Terry Mross]

That’s her way of saying “I know you’re not going to select me so to save face....” Sorta’ like being allowed to resign.

[dianed]

Well, this kind of thing happens, ya know, when you get ya know, a little ahead of yourself and have, ya know, a little too much confidence, ya know, that people will just ya know, see your name and, ya know, know you would make a good, ya know, Senator, ya know.

[Army Air Corps]

Begone, you aged dunce!

[tflabo]

Hey Caroline...enjoy your private life. You are NOT senator material. But then again that House of Clowns sets the bar pretty low anyway.

[Army Air Corps]

Begone, you aged dunce!

They try to play it off like she's concerned about her uncle...

Of course she's concerned about her uncle. The sooner he kicks the bucket the sooner she can take over.

[Ann Archy]

OMG!! They ELECT Franken and Caroline was too pathetic to be SELECTED!!

[Lucretia Borgia]

OMG!! They ELECT Franken and Caroline was too pathetic to be SELECTED!! We DID NOT ELECT Franken, he used his magic demoncrat wand and conjured up the necessary votes in a very dirty recount.

[Nervous Tick]

But then again that House of Clowns sets the bar pretty low anyway.

You don't say...

The New York Times reported that Kennedy's decision to withdraw was prompted by concerns about the health of her uncle, Sen. Edwad Kennedy, who was hospitalized after a seizure during an inaugural lunch for Obama on Tuesday.

Say what? He's been dying of cancer for months before she announced. Now she's concerned?

Yet another reason I am glad to be from Washington State.
Sure, we have lib senators, but not complete idiot clowns.

Thank you Minnesota for your thoughtful contribution to the club of 100.

[Colvin]

I wonder how fast she can move to Mass, and how long she has to be there to be considered for Poor Uncle’s seat.
I’m sure she would get a better showing there.
