21. Are you really that politically ignorant?
I'm sorry, but I just have a hard time believing that a Democrat doesn't know who Caroline Kennedy is.

26. I added the sarcasm icon to my post.
It's a good endorsement, just not as big as what I was led to believe was coming down the pike...

31. Why is that so surprising? Didn't her uncle support him?
Me thinks maybe there has been a little bad blood and jealousy in the Senate over the way Hillary has become such a good Senator. Just wondering out loud. :shrug: Just a personal thought...no links

39. Edward Kennedy was recently asked about his c hoice and declined to say who
he favors. He did however share his disdain for Bill's overshadowing ways in this primary in a phone call to Bill.

and instead of getting a nice kiss he got his butt whacked.

apparently didn't take the wise man's advice.

54. That's another big one. She's a New Yorker, yes?
I know she's a "civilian" in the world of politics, but as Kennedy, her symbolic value is very high indeed.
