I will not be participating in the "Ohh too bad Teddy is gone" threads coming soon to an Internet near you.
This person has done serious damage to our Nation.

Uh, she's Onassis!
My limited knowledge of German says that “der Schloss” means `castle’ and “der Berg” means `mountain’.
Therefore, Caroline Kennedy is “the castle upon the mountain(top)”.
Which must never be questioned nor challenged. When Herself wants the opinion of you commoners, She will ask for it.
Verstehen Sie?
I disagree with you. If Patterson were a true patriot, he would appoint the hardest working, most successful congressperson in New York to the seat and kill nepotism. This country was founded to end dynastic rule.
Speaking of "missing the Big Picture," I think she wants to give Uncle Teddy the gift of another Kennedy in the Senate before he passes.This is about sustaining the Kennedy legacy in the Senate. Swearing in Caroline while Uncle Ted is still in the Senate will be a spectacle for Democrats like nothing we've seen before. When Ted finally passes, Senator Caroline will preside over a Senate memorial that will put the Wellstone memorial to shame.

Why doesn't this bloated, booze-sotted buffoon retire so that he can devote all of his time and energy to battling his incurable tumor?
She’ll be part of a new legacy. Unlike “Sweet Caroline”, “The Swimmer” could not be appointed to his brother’s seat in ‘61.

Camelot Barbie is reminding me more and more of Veruca Salt, from the Roald Dahl book, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (Made into the “Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory” movie starring Gene Wilder).
So now fellow citizens are "outsiders"? Talk about presuming an entitlement.
If memory serves me correctly Senate seats assigned to each state are retained from Senator to Senator. Therefore the seat Princess Caroline would occupy would be one of the two NY seats. Therefore I am not sure what Teddy and/or his anonymous friends are talking about when it comes to an "outsider" filling Teddy's MA Senate seat. And what MA relative would be able to retain the seat from "outsider" assault?
It’s true, CA would have been just as well off with Davis as with Arnold. It didn’t matter. What’s a letter of the alphabet?
They need to give Jack Reed a Cabinet post so EMK, Jr., can get a RI seat.
I believe it was said that her being a “wife and mother” is what “qualified” her for the Senate.
Hmm. Maybe she’ll gain 300 lbs so she can fit in his seat.

Ted Kennedy cant die soon enough for me. The Kennedy legacy? Drunks. Drug addicts. Adulterers. Murderers. Child Rapists. General reprobates all around. Some fallen standard to pick up. Why cant the Kennedys just STFU already and go away and count their millions?
Indeed that's the only distinction. Upon one little ink stroke in one checkbox, 1/4 of an inch above the other, were the hopes, dreams and expectations of a land of 36 million people placed.
She never changed her name, and why would she?
Didn’t Teddy say that was Barack’s duty?
None of that "family heirloom" crap here in Illinois, it goes to the highest bidder.
