If you want the peoples’ interests upheld, get some old trouper like Ed Koch to fill in.

Ms. Schlossberg is bereft of any knowledge of NY political realities, and is simply spouting the warmed-over “K” family party line.

Oh, Caroline! Whom I have adored for 45 years. You need a good media liaison.

I have Caroline’s well-written books on the First Amendment. My Republican self has always loved and worshipped her, vividly when she interned at the old LA Herald-Examiner, where I toiled, in 1978. But now, she betrays even modern English.

My wish: Caroline takes the seat, which is (truly) owed her. She decides, nobly, that she doesn’t wish to run for election. A great Republican, Peter King, runs and wins the seat, during the first-term Obama turmoil, beating an angry lefty Democrat.

And then. . .all is well.

You all should read “The Cycles of American History,” by the late, great Arthur Schlesinger, Jr. (Kennedy sycophant, but a Pulitzer-worthy historian), and then you will realize that our Republican Party will revive itself.

the average joe makes good observations.

and to pick up on the first comment, i can’t even imagine what princess caroline’s carbon footprint must be like with that park ave. penthouse, private jet, limousine, yacht, etc.. typical limousine liberal. go back under your rock. ditto for bobby kennedy jr. and his enormous bedford mansion. how does he heat that baby?

the bloom has fallen off this rose. time for the rich kids to go find something else to play with.

It seems Caroline thinks the Kennedys have to work harder than…”the average Joe,” in order to get ahead. I had no opinion on this woman’s “candidacy” one way or another, but every time she opens her mouth, I get the impression that, like John-John, she’s been given a lot of opportunities (Harvard, Columbia Law, to name just two) that her intellectual qualities would hardly qualify her for. No wonder Jackie kept them under wraps. The quieter a member of this generation of Kennedys is, the more I hope he/she possibly has something cogent to say. Now that she’s joined the loquacious part of the clan, she proves me wrong again.

Hey Mrs. Schlossberg (notice she cut that off her name even though she’s still married to Ed) – you want alternative energy? Well, guess what? NUCLEAR POWER is an alternative. Even your golden-boy Obama understands this. Solar, wind, nuclear, hydro, and the myriad emerging technologies will lead the way in cutting our dependence on foreign oil. Your cuz recently opposed wind mills in the sound and years ago opposed hydro power upstate – he’s been long opposed to nuclear power so I have just one question: what do you and Bobby Jr. propose as our alternatives? Candles? Give us a break! But seriously, I challenge any of you in the “Close Indian Point” crowd to give us just one CONCRETE alternative energy (aside from Nuclear) and explain how and where you plan to implement it and more importantly, how to you plan to replace the nearly 17,000 GW-h’s from Indian Point and meet the metro area’s increasing demand of 200+ MW’s annually? Please, just one person, answer the question!
