August 19, 2002 -- WASHINGTON - Andrew Cuomo isn't the only Kennedy kin whose political ambitions are running into trouble this summer.

Kathleen Kennedy Townsend - sister of Cuomo's wife, Kerry, and eldest daughter of the late Robert F. Kennedy - was supposed to be a shoo-in as Maryland's next governor, but suddenly, she isn't.

"Like Cuomo, Townsend is losing support among blacks. One reason could be that her GOP rival tapped an African- American running mate"

Another plus for a rising star, Condi Rice.

One reason could be that her GOP rival tapped an African-American running mate, while she chose a retired Navy admiral who's white.

Neither one of these guys has a name? Poor reporting!

LOL. Oh no.

No more Prohibition in which to run liquor into the country.
After all the SEC laws it is too hard to manipulate the stock market in the same old way.
Can't win an "honest" election anymore.

What's left for Kennedy Clanspersons to do for a living now?

This is what happens when you can't connect with "ordinary" people.

That's because one is a Black Republican and thus can't actually exist (as far as the lame-stream press is concerned). The other may be a demoncRAT, but to use his name and not the Black Republican nominee's name would be too blatant, even for them.

So the question is: What's next for the Camelot dynasty?

Whatever it is, I hope it's not in Maryland.

I'd give a dollar or two if they came and took my trash to the dumpster.

LOL. She picked a white running mate, while the Pubbie picked an African-American? Tsk tsk. Another limosine lib who don't walk the walk. Suhprize, suhprize. Now if only Dem voters will take their brains out of neutral.

Ms. Orin was probably confused, so she left out Ms. Townsend's running mate's name. Even Ms. Townsend gets confused, calling him Larson one time and Lawson another. Here in Maryland we're not really sure what his name is.

What we do know is that up to a month before he was announced he was a Republican. What we also suspect is that he is very, very sorry that he ever agreed to run. Seems that she won't let him speak before black groups. She's afraid that it just rubs it in.

They are quickly running out of "bench". Soon we may start seeing their bastard progeny.

Not only that, but the guy she picked - an Adm. Larson - stated he was a Republican until recently. He switched because the Dems are more aligned with his way of thinking. Take that for what it is worth.
