First and most importantly, the choice is not really up to anyone but New Yorkers, and although Kennedy may have been popular early on she is NOT the one New Yorkers want today.
http://tpmelectioncentral.talkingpointsmemo.com/2009/01/poll_caroline_kennedys_support_collapses.phpOne of the reasons why her support collapsed was because she was doing poorly in interviews. Does that remind you of anyone?
So what were her qualifications to begin with? Her name? What legitimate right does that grant her? What has she really ever done for the party? How has she ever been tested politically? It takes a lot more than that to fill a Senate seat, especially one that will be hotly contested in the next election.
