2. Markey is a very bad candidate. I said this months ago. Vicki Kennedy is needed.

Putting a male up for the post is a losing situation.
They already have one running on the republican ticket.

At this point in time, we need Vicky Kennedy.

Vicky should be appointed both interim and then even though they said it wouldn't happen,
run for the 2 year end.

Markey is a poor choice, he reminds me of how Walter Mondale was chosen to run for Wellstone's seat.He was lethargic and ran the same type of terrible campaign he did as he did in 1984 for President(and he was a horrible choice to run for President in 1984 anyhow.

I would in this case like to see a challenge up to primary time in April, then a surprise late entry when neither candidate excites the masses.
