Warren will give the seat up in two years so that Deval Patrick can appoint Joke3 to the “Kennedy’s Seat”. Why do you think they went with an outsider from OK instead of one of the giant egos in the House?

Why would Warren do that? What’s in it for her?
There’s nothing they could promise her that’s better than actually holding the Senate seat for yourself. What you suggested won’t happen. It’s too much of a bizarre power-grab with too much backlash potential. The only way a snot-nose Kennedy gets another Senate seat is if people vote that way.
“Joke3” is already being made fun of now by people who think he’s too young and inexperienced to get a seat in Congress. Gifting him the Senate seat two years from now would be a political disaster - even here.
The Dems are shameless in this State, but even they have some limits.
