If you’re bored, my one cent: Caroline: Stand Down
Hey, great column, thanks for the link!!
I agree that if she really wants to display some political mettle she should announce for 2010 as an electoral candidate, rather than try to get appointed now. But she’ll be happy to take the sinecure if it’s handed to her by the Gov.
As for the assassinations 40+ years ago, I certainly have plenty of sympathy for any child (or anyone at all) who had to live through all that, but there ought to be a statute of limitations on sympathy related to asking to be handed a high public office 40 years later! My sympathy for the child Caroline K. does not extent to the 51 year old adult CK asking to be appointed to high office without any evident qualifications.
