Retreat Caroline …Da – Da –Da…

The articulate Caroline Kennedy has decided to withdraw herself from consideration to replace Her Majesty Hillary Clinton as United States Senator from New York. Ms. Kennedy claims that part of her decision is due to the health concerns of her Uncle Teddy who recently keeled over at an inauguration luncheon for President Obama. Chivas Regal anyone?

I’m not buying it! I believe that the svelte Caroline finally came to her senses and realized that being a senator actually requires a lot of speaking. During recent weeks while openly campaigning for the position, Ms. Kennedy made a buffoon of herself every time she opened her trap! Her liberal use of the phrase “you know” was an embarrassment to the Camelot image of the Kennedy family. In a 30 minute interview on a New York City cable channel, Ms. Kennedy muttered “you know” over 200 times.

Oh well – at least Caroline got a well needed good meal out of the ordeal when she dined with Al Sharpton in Harlem at the famous Sylvia’s soul food restaurant a few weeks ago. She was apparently so hungry, that she broke an unwritten rule in politics that says you shouldn’t stuff your face while the media cameras are on you. Who could blame her; it was probably the first time in her life that she actually ate some real food!

Anyway, I applaud Ms. Kennedy for seeing the light and bowing out.
As Dirty Harry aptly put it in the movie MAGNUM FORCE; “A man (in this case a woman) has got to know his limitations”.
