A Senate seat is an heirloom that the Kennedys pass from one generation to another.

It's an heirloom that Dems pass from one generation to another.

At least Caroline atually lives in NY --unlike her Uncle Bobby and Hillary.

I assume if the princess wants it she gets it.

Although I generally despise Wash Po, here is an op-ed from yesterday’s edition ... against the appointment of Caroline ...

Caroline will hand the seat off to Chelsea just as soon as she in installed in the White House. These things take time don’t you know.

Legacy admissions into the Ivy League are no guarantees of intelligence.

The question is - what did Caroline offer Uncle Ted for this opportunity to materialize out of nowhere? A sandwich? /sarc

[lonestar]

None of the Kennedys have spent any part of their fortunes on braces!

[trisham]

Think whatever you like. Take your gaze off of the enemy and he wins.

It’s also ironic that Princess Caroline is the one referred to as a blue blood considering SP is the descendant of Mayflower Pilgrims and is related to many Presidents and Princess Di of all people.

The Mayflower Pilgrims were hardly blue bloods. Regarding Brit aristocracy, so are Kerry, Bush, Obama and countless other Americans and Brits.

The Palins and Heaths are workers and teachers. She was elected Mayor and Governor. Sarah is an average American girl who achieved everything on her own.

The Kennedys are aristocratic nepotists who think their family is entitled to every post in government even without being elected. Limousine liberals.

[muawiyah]

Did she marry her brother or something?

****************

Absolutely correct.

[GoldenPup]

Other than having a morally corrupt, fat, loudmouthed uncle in the senate already, what are her real qualifications? Has she got any experience? Has she got any ability? Has she ever done anything that would qualify her for the position. There aren’t any monarchies in America and there never will be...I don’t care what her name is!!!

[indcons]

“Think whatever you like.”

I just did! The Kennedys are inbred, idiot, dynastic, and stupid scum.

So, trisham - going back to your point. How does calling Caroline Kennedy stupid translate to taking the “gaze off the enemy”? Just wondering.

[trisham]

No, she married this man, perhaps a father-figure.

[BatGuano]

When, please tell me when these Kennedys will just go away!

I have the answer, they won't. There is a need for legislation, a law that PROHIBITS any family member, including extended family, of any elected official from holding any office. The nation needs to end nepotism in government.

[trisham]

Dismissing the strength of our enemy weakens our ability to fight him/her.

[SolidWood]

I can name rabid bug-eyed lunatics who have Ivy degrees. Kerry and Barry were also Ivies. It’s not a secret that commie faculty have turned colleges into factories cranking out liberal goons. Some of the most evil and politically (and morally) stupid folks come from Ivy universities. It says nothing about her competence or wisdom.

[muawiyah]

It's quite likely Caroline is the ONLY Kennedy who has a problem with Mad Bombers. One of 'em almost got her.

Odds are she won't be popular with the Obamistas or the Clintonistas either.

Then, there's that Leftwingtard who shot her dad ~ she may have dark thoughts about that crowd. Or, maybe she's nuts.

[trisham]

I'm not sure that in principle we disagree. I would like nothing better than to see all of the Kennedy clan out of public office, but living in Massachusetts I have begun to realize that it will not be easily done.

We need to find a strategy that will work for us.

[trisham]

I've seen her speak. She's not stupid. She's a liberal at best, but to underestimate her is not a winning strategy.
