Joseph Kennedy III, the son of former congressman Joe Kennedy, is being tipped to launch a political career soon as insiders mull over who the next Kennedy in public life will be.
Kennedy, 29, may be interested in the South Shore-Cape Cod House seat currently held by Democratic Congressman Bill Delahunt, who has not yet committed to a tough re-election fight.
Massachusetts and Capitol Hill without a Kennedy is like Fenway Park without the Wall, Dan Payne, a Democratic media consultant, referring to the famous Green Monster told the Boston Globe. They were meant to be together.
Others believe the era may be over. Theres an endless supply of Kennedys but they all do different things with their lives, said Philip W. Johnston, chairman of the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice and Human Rights. They should not be measured by how they do in electoral politics.
Joseph P. Kennedy III is a Harvard Law School graduate and former Peace Corps volunteer, is seen as the most likely, Democratic Party insiders say. He has made numerous appearances at Democratic party events and has expressed the most interest in seeking office. He is currently an assistant district attorney in Barnstable County. His brother Matthew Kennedy is working in the Obama administration but is said to be more interested in a business career.
Other possibilities for politics include Ted Kennedy's widow Vicki who is said to still be furious about the loss of her husband's senate seat to Scott Brown, while Patrick Kennedy has not ruled out another run for office.
Great. Another Harvard, lawyer, Peace 'Corpse', fake District Attorney coffee boy job Kennedy.
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...............
They’re like zombies, they just won’t die.
Another buck-toothed inbred POS Kennedy.
Maybe one of the remaining clan will take him driving....or skiing....or flying....
Or to the dentist for some whitening.
The CANCER, once thought GONE!, now appears to have a Vicious Chance at a Recurrance! YUK!! The news could be worse!, but only if we heard Al (Diaper Boy) Franken had decided to run for President!
No, it means someone forgot to flush the toilet bowl that is DC....and if another Kennedy turd shows up there we'll have to flush AGAIN!
Massachusetts and Capitol Hill without a Kennedy is like Fenway Park without the Wall, Dan Payne, a Democratic media consultant”
I beg to differ. It’s more like a finding out you only have a cold virus instead of herpes.
Ugh. America’s most worse-than-useless political family.
Has anyone ever come up with Proof that John F. Kennedy, Jr. was going to announce his run for the vacant New York Moynhihan Senate Seat against Hillary Clinton just days after his Untimely “AIRCRAFT ACCIDENT?” Betcha John Jr. woulda cleaned Hillary’s Clock in a Landslide “IF” he remained alive and a Viable Candidate! Oh Well!! Thats sorta like saying “If there wasn’t that bridge at Chappaquiddick!
LEAVE US ALONE. GET SOME ORTHOONTIA.
Capitol Hill without a Kennedy is like sex without herpes.
Democratic Congressman Bill Delahunt: wasn’t he the DA that failed to bring charges against the AL murderer when she killed her brother twenty years ago?
There's Joe Sr, the old man
Joe Jr, killed in WWII
Joe the third, RFK's eldest
And now this kid. Shouldn't he be JPK IV?
He may interested in the seat; but that doesn’t make him entitled to the seat.
This goofball has ZERO chance in this anti Dem climate.
Great resume. I ain’t done Shit but I AM a Kennedy. Well screw you BOY! Not this year.
So he’s goin down and they are hoping to save the seat by running a Kennedy....Must have not gotten the memo.
