Rivals: Caroline Kennedy Picked for NY Senate Seat
Caroline Kennedy will be the next Senator from New York according to her rivals for the spot. Other in contention for the spot believe New York governor David Paterson has already decided upon Kennedy and is just playing it out in the press, at this point, for proprieties sake.
The contenders based their conclusion on the view that Paterson, after nearly two months of indecision, would “greatly embarrass” and “entirely humiliate” Kennedy, anger her prominent political family and even offend President-elect Barack Obama by picking someone other than President John F. Kennedy’s daughter.
As for the governor’s claim to be weighing a last-minute finalist, the contenders agree with a close Paterson friend who said, “It’s clear David is just trying to play mind games with the press.”
If money can’t but you a Senate seat then being famous and having a famous last name will do the trick in New York. Patterson has still publically yet to decide on who he will tab to replace Hillary Rodham Clinton in the Senate.
Update: Kirsten Gillibrand, Not Caroline, Selected to Replace Hillary
