Patrick Deval would NOT be able to name Ted Kennedy's replacement; that would be up to Massachusetts voters.

IIRC, the governor names a replacement until the next election, November 2008.

The MA legislature change the law so Mitt Romney wouldn't be able to choose J F'n K's successor if he had won the 2004 presidential election.
