There’s a song parody in that title.

“Sweet Caroline, Senate never seemed so good...”

NY gets what it deserves. A know nothing Senator on top of its ridiculous round of 80+ tax increases on absurd items.

The state just needs to collapse in on itself. Funny how these “enlightened” people with “good intentions” can’t run a hot dog cart successfully yet are given cities and states to run into the ground.

Last person left, turn out the lights.

....defending her qualifications....
::::::::
Kinda like Obama defending his qualifications. But at least she is a qualified citizen....that puts her ahead of our new “president”. Looks like just about anyone or anything can just walk into Washington unopposed, for all practical purposes.

If the media will advertise you, the stupid masses will believe it.

You know this country is in the toilet when we let someone with absolutely no experience just waltz into one of the 100 jobs as a U.S. Senator. I guess that goes to show that, when it comes to being a U.S. Senator, “anyone can do it.”

Where does Caroline Kennedy stand on the Employee Free Choice Act? And why does she take that position?

As much as I despise the prospect of Senator Caroline Kennedy, I would relish a Peter King/Caroline Kennedy race in 2010.

The main issue that needs to be explored is if she likes warm puppies and pretty sunsets.

If she thinks she is ready to serve, then by all means she may run for the NY Senate in 2010. I think she really means, “I’m ready to be annointed, and be given a Senate seat without doing much work to get it.”

So am I Caroline, and I;m more qualified than you are. Can you ask him to appoint me instead? We already know you don’t have to be from New York for that seat.

My personal proposal would be to do away with senate appointments altogether and hold special elections when an incumbent senator either resigns, dies or takes up another position.

That would eliminate influence peddling and quid quo pro’s.

How is this not the height of obsurdity, when Peter King of New York is more qualified?This is more of the same typical Chicago type dirty politics .. Ihate to be a wet blanket on Ms. Kennedy but obviously croneyism is the norm of the day in politics

This is too weird. There’s more to it. Like the next scandal.
