See link above where audio of a Caroline interview purports that she says “you know” 138 times. Between Barry’s “uhhs” and her “you knows,” it is no wonder they communicate so well.

Being from Buffalo, I find the whole media-created ‘Caroline-craze’ disgusting. Hillary did a great job of fighting for upstate NY, and Gov Patterson has spoken out consistently about helping upstate NY’s economy. Even former M&T Bank (HQ’d in Buffalo, its one of the good banks Warren Buffet invests heavily in) President Dave Wilmers was named economic director for the state. So an effete, inexperienced upper crust Manhattanite would be a bad fit for representing all of NY state. NYC already has a senator in Charles Schumer. Caroline Schlossberg is a no go. period.

i agree; it seems like faux outrage – too little, too late. a black male who has never accomplished anything except promoting himself via affirmative action and behind the scenes puppet-masters is going to be our next president, but now all of the sudden qualifications matter when it comes to CK. hey, she raised a lot of money for Ozero; isn’t that a qualification?

How dare we ask that our “leaders” be qualified. The Left (the Pod Left, that is) has lost all of its critical faculties.

“Caroline should have kept the mystic going. Now everybody knows there is nothing there really.”

Ohhhh, you are sooo right! Ck blew it big time by pulling the curtains back. Now we see that there is no there there . . . .

And I think that Geraldine Ferraro, herself, would be a great choice.

She was a great and admired member of the House of Representatives and knows her way around the federal legislative process.

There are so many qualified women in New York, it is just OBNOXIOUS and an insult to think Caroline Kennedy would be the best choice.

She needs to get in line and DO something first.

Geraldine Ferraro recommended to Gov. Patterson that one of the female House members should be considered for the open Senate seat.

Caroline Kennedy thinks she would bring federal money to New York based on the fact she supported Obama for president.

Wow, if that’s how Caroline expects Obama to dole out the federal dollars — and our tax money will go only to states where the senators supported him — it says something really awful about what Ms. Kennedy thinks being a president is all about.

Imagine if FDR — during The Great Depression of the 1930s — had doled out federal money and jobs only to the states where the senators had supported him. Holy cow.

That is an alarming and horrifying view of the presidency — and that view alone should DISQUALIFY Caroline from being appointed to the senate.

She needs to take a few minutes (or years) out to re-evaluate the role of an American president.

In the meantime, let one of New York’s current House members (preferably female) have the U.S. senate seat, and then Caroline can COMPETE for the vacated House seat.

I would love to be a mouse in the corner of the Senate to watch Harriet upset some of their cushy apple carts.
Better yet Harriet from New York and in a couple of years Palin from Alaska. Talk about rocking the status quo.

I wonder why Ted Kennedy didn’t push one of the RFK boys, I guess because he endorsed Hillary. Caroline should have kept the mystic going. Now everybody knows there is nothing there really.

I believe America was founded to escape the concept of inherited power. New Yorkers need to start hollering before they end up with Senator Fluff’N'Stuff.

OMG–you are SO right Uppity. It is so painful to watch her. I have to change the channel.

She reminds me of the student who has to give a speech in front of the class but forgot that today was the day–so just standing there, uncomfortable, unconnected words and “lapse speech” spilling out, wishing he/she could be anywhere else.

To have someone in the Senate like Harriet Christian would be refreshing!
