Shoot! I wanted her to be a senator. Her presence would’ve have been the perfect compliment to this freak show now playing in D.C.

Of course they are, as a branch of the DNC this whole thing was embarrassing for them.

I think she saw the Obama trainwreck coming down the tracks yesterday and figured she’d steer clear of that disaster. I think he’s going to be the undoing of the Democratic party.

The truth....she was probably told she wasn’t going to get it and in order to save face withdrew her name.

I’m betting that it’s former Governor Mario Cuomo.

More likely his son.

She's going to take care of Unca Ted!! Boy--does that woman get BAD advice...she shoulda just shut up and she wouldn't have been such a laughingstock.

IMHO, what killed her was not her speech patterns that would make a 16 y/o mall moll look good, nor was it her claim that her motherhood qualified her, nor her devastating interview in the NY Times. No--it was the fact that she gave BUBKUS $ to the democrap party in NY State. HA!

Andy has always wanted to be governor...he might not take the Senate seat. However, Mario might.

Oh gawd...didja see her on Sean tonight? She should be a social worker somewhere...

But Caroline...has there ever been a more graceless individual ever put before the American public? Ungainly, inarticulate, ignorant, self-important...and those are her good points. Yeccchhh...

After seeing Fran Dressler on tonights Hannity & Powers (yes thats Kirsten Powers) I would say that if it has to be a dem then let Fran Dressler be the NY senator. She had nice things to say about Laura Bush and what they’ve done for women in Afghanistan.

Two other options:

1. she was nominated to keep an eye on the liquor cabinet
2. she got a death threat.

I love that record by the way. One of Brian's very best.

I’m surprised. I thought for sure she had the money to buy the seat.

Senator Sharpton? LOL!

Too bad Rev Jesse didn’t get Barry’s seat.

The Justice Brothers in the Senate. What a laugh that would be. Along with Frankenfool.

1. Couldn’t take rejection.

2. Too wimpy and doesn’t have any guts.

3. Not as socialist as we thought.

4. Doesn’t want to be a shoe-in Kennedy.
