Excellent news! Incidentally, in case you haven’t heard, Patrick Kennedy is back in rehab.
But can he drink like a Kennedy and does he have his own bed at the detox center?
Some good news. I think 2010 will be a good year for the North East and the GOP.
I am in your district Pawtucket, RI. Kennedy hopefully isn’t my rep any longer.
He looks like a good candidate. Patrick Kennedy is apt to be very distracted given the his fathers cancer and his own rehab. If ‘10 is a good year for him maybe he has a chance.
I just moved out of RI after living there for over 60 years. It is a pity I won’t be part of the electorate that votes Patrick out of office, but you can believe I will be sending contributions to his opponent.

Unless he’s prepared to raise 6 figures, he’s not going to be much more than desultory opposition. There’s almost no Republicans left in the RI legislature, the last election reduced them to single digits (lost more seats in the House than they now currently hold), partly due to straight-ticket voting. Gov. Carcieri might take a kamikaze run, but even he probably couldn’t do it.
