Gosh, I hope so! He might be moving back to MA to try to reclaim his “daddy’s seat” from Scott Brown, but I doubt that voters want to unseat Senator Brown in favor of a mentally ill, spoiled brat Kennedy.

No, I do put Patches in the boat of “no one will give me any money since they know I am going to lose in a landslide”.

No way!

My guess Daddy was Patrick's teleprompter. Ted probably spent a fortune buying son a seat in congress.

Patrick Kennedy has never been able to get elected without Teddy's help, Now that Teddy has assumed room temperature, Patrick will have to fall back on interviews with Kieth Oberman and Rachel Maddow as he struggles to to speak without sounding like he just finished a huge bong hit

Maybe he decided that 55 million dead babies was enough, and he didn’t want to participate in killing any more.

Nah.

I’ve heard him speak a number of times. He didn’t sound as though he was struggling not to sound like he just had a bong hit. He sounded as though he just had a huge bong hit.

I guess they were worried he’d smuggle a Saturday Night Special inside of it.
