Her depth of service would not stand up well against some of the others rumoured for the NY seat, but It is still a better record than Kennedy's non existent one.

jumpinfarmer 0 #7 December 18, 2008 Unfortunantly I think she probably will be our new senatorShe has never done anything but be born with a name, and live in the White House as a kid. Untill today when she went on a tour she had never even been in Upstate New York, and she admitted it. How can she represent a state when she hardly even knows it exists.

Ok, let's just look at her life. Interned with her uncle Ted. That alone is probably more educational and Congressional experience than most first time Senators have. She actually has and continues to live in New York. Who the fuck cares if she's ever visited upper state New York? Ok, some people in up state New York sure, but my guess is that's the same all over the country if you look at a lot of Senators and places they've been. She was the Director of the Office of Strategic Partnerships for the the New York City Department of Education. She worked for 1 dollar and raised $65 MILLION for public schools. No small task. She has done a lot more significant work than a lot of first time Senators.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy9o8 0 #17 December 18, 2008 As long as this remains open, it's a news story today, tomorrow and next week. If I was Paterson, I'd put an end to the pressure and distraction, as well as the presumption, by appointing Andrew Cuomo today. That stops it being a news story next week, and reminds those who need to hear it just who the f***g Governor is. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tbrown 26 #18 December 18, 2008 QuoteQuoteAnyone think she has a shred of credibility Her last name is Kennedy and not Khadija. I think that counts for a little less than half the country. Interesting remark, since at one time in America, "Irish need not apply" and a name like Kennedy was enough to block a lot of ambitions. Anyway, her name now is Schlossberg, and she's been an uptown Manhattan socialite for over a generation. That and Hillary's seat was also RFK's seat, in other words, it's NY's "reserved for carpetbaggers with ambitions" seat in the Senate. Your humble servant.....Professor Gravity !

kelpdiver 2 #22 December 18, 2008 Quote When is the seat up for re-election? 2010 right? So, in a way, I think this could work well for the Republican party...if they can get their act together... The short period before the reelection is actually the only compelling reason for picking her. She's totally unqualified otherwise. The Democrats need to pick someone that can effectively fund raise for the 2010 reelection. That will be as significant a midterm election as 1994 was, with the DNC hoping to get their 60 senate seats. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's her only qualification. Though I must add, raising $65M is a bit on the small side for such a massive school system. It's like McCain bitching about 8B in earmarks while spending hundreds of billions on Iraq. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
