In related news, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) took the announcement of Senator Kennedy’s illness as an opportunity to make a pitch for socialized medicine. “One of Senator Kennedy’s fondest wishes was that the government would take over the nation’s healthcare system,” she said. “He has done so much for this country. The least we can do in return is to enact universal healthcare as a memorial to this great man.”

“Succession” and “Inherit”

He’s been in that seat for so long we’re using terms related to hereditary monarchies to describe the situation.

“The commoners of Massachusetts”...........

I have to ask. Is the term “commoners” used because the state is a Commonwealth?

I hope so, else that would be the height of arrogance otherwise.

I think the plebians would do well to content themselves with whatever the gentes maiores overall decide.

Most politicians are very stupid people. But this has to be the dumbest thing that I've ever heard one of them say. America should become a Socialist state just because Teddy wants to see it before he becomes deceased? I wonder what Pelosi is smoking.

“Kennedy Brain Tumor Raises Question of Succession”

I think the Senator will make a fine replacement to succeed Satan, as long as he can solidify his support before Bill Clinton gets there.
