Here's some interesting news:Yes, folks, the oldest daughter of President Kennedy is considering succeeding Hillary Clinton in her U.S. Senate seat in New York.
“I believe that she is considering it,” said her cousin Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has spoken to Ms. Kennedy about the matter during the past week. “A lot of people the last couple of weeks have urged her to do it.”
Ms. Kennedy called Gov. David A. Paterson on Wednesday to discuss the position, Mr. Paterson confirmed Friday. The governor will choose a replacement for Mrs. Clinton upon her expected confirmation as secretary of state next month.
As much as I like Caroline Kennedy, what exactly qualifies her to be a senator? What will she bring to the state of New York? Will she be half the legislator Hillary Clinton was in her time in the Senate?
Who knows... it may be a popular pick but it makes me a little uneasy. I'd rather have someone who has actually served in the government before.
