Caroline Kennedy Takes Herself Out Of Senate Bid

NYTimes.com:

Caroline Kennedy has withdrawn from consideration for the vacant Senate seat in New York, according to a person told of her decision.

On Wednesday she called Gov. David A. Paterson, who will choose a successor to Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton. Her concerns about Senator Edward M. Kennedy’s deteriorating health (he was hospitalized after suffering a seizure during President Obama’s inaugural lunch on Tuesday ) prompted her decision to withdraw, this person said. Coping with her uncle’s condition was her most important priority, a situation not conducive to starting a high profile public job.

Mr. Paterson had indicated to her that the job was hers if she would accept it, the person said.

She was planning to issue a statement on Wednesday evening.

Good. She wasn't at all qualified to be Senator, sounded like a second-grader when she spoke publicly and came out of nowhere so she sneak in on the back her last name, a surname that's inexplicably treated like its royalty by liberals. But then it's outrageous that Caroline Kennedy was even considered for the job, New Yorkers should remember that when David Paterson comes up for re-election.
