did anyone count the number of times Caroline said “you know” in a two and one half minute speech? I was so distracted, I couldn’t concentrate one her message! Go listen to her again, and tell me if she sounds “senatorial”…

Ben Smith on Politico.com (12/28/08):

One thing Caroline Kennedy would bring to Washington: A new, distinctive Kennedy verbal tic: She said “you know” 142 times in her Times interview.

Someone get Cyndie her own column!

    If she is so convinced that she is qualified and right for the job, let the Gov appoint someone who will step down in two years while she organizes a real campaign.

    Let the voters make the decision.

    I bet if she isn’t appointed, she doesn’t run for the seat. She wants to do it the lazy way.

    she’s already on the record saying that if someone else is appointed she won’t challenge them. that’s not a big negative because NY is really a machine run state, and people don’t get primaried there.

    but yeah, it shouldn’t be her.
