Senator Edward Kennedy's death marks the twilight of one of America's most fabled political families, with no heirs to the Kennedy name poised to emerge with the same mix of gravitas, ambition and celebrity.

John-John was up there, but unfortunately his life was cut short by a plane crash. He had the gravitas, the ambition and the celebrity qualities. I don't think he would have wanted to spend a lifetime in politics anyway, and most people wouldn't blame him.
