EAST PROVIDENCE, R.I. Two years ago, it would have been unthinkable that both seats held by Kennedys could go Republican. But Scott Brown's January election in Mass paved the way for the GOP who are hoping state Rep. John J. Loughlin II will win the race for Patrick's House seat. "There is extreme voter unrest about the liberal, big-government, agenda that is bankrupting our nation," said Eric Fehrnstrom, the architect of Mr. Brown's win--now a strategist with Loughlin's campaign. "People are beginning to wake up to the fact that our country is on the brink of financial ruin and RI is not immune to voter backlash we are witnessing in other parts of the country." © Copyright 2010 The Washington Times, LLC.

Besides JFK, Jr., that guy must be one of the better looking Kennedys...

Looks like Jackie thinks JFK is, too.

Jackie is the one who gave the JFK admin the Camelot image.

No comparison.

Mrs O was all set to assume the Jackie mantle...... the WH decor, the European trips, the fashions.

But she screwed up bigtime when she gallivanted to Spain as Americans were joblesss and homeless.

I guess [Ginger Kennedy] had better offers---as Crest spox, or Clairol package model.

Or as a Spice Girl?

Sure looks like Ted Kennedy worked with Soros to bring Obama about Ted was the king of socialism in D.C. now the question is who is Soros backing now for the next election?.

the family (which derived its wealth from a capitalist liquor distributor)

That's what they call bootleggers these days?

‘Camelot’ was promoted by Hollywood... Too bad that so many of the Kennedy clan bought into the foolishness...

"Camelot" was promoted by Jackie. The Kennedy "clan" didn't just buy into it, they basically created it and fuelled it--just like the "eternal flame" at Arlington, another of Jackie's assinine ideas.
