First, all politicians who run for Senate - and even more those who run for President, have and need a very healthy ego. That said, Kerry was among the last of the more talented people in his generation in the Senate to run for President. (Consider that Gore, Biden, Harken, and Kerrey all ran in earlier year - or years.

I seriously don't see why you think the most junior Senator would lead the AWB legislation - especially as Dianne Feinstein has already spoken of writing legislation and Frank Lautenberg will reintroduce his bill. It is beyond silly to speak of Mrs. Kennedy as VP or President. Also, it seems weird to call Senator Elizabeth Warren "Liz". Are you even sure this is the nickname she chose?
