And Now A Statement From Kennedy’s Camp

Posted by: Joseph Spector - Posted in Uncategorized on Jan 22, 2009

Caroline Kennedy spokesman Stephen Friedman responded to the charges about her today in this statement this evening.

“Caroline Kennedy withdrew her name for consideration from the United States Senate for personal reasons. Any statements to the contrary are false. The governor set up a fair and deliberative selection process. This kind of mudslinging demeans that process and all those involved.”

   It seems to me the reporting (NYT, Time, Washington Post, NBC) has already established this if you read below the headline come ons. We don’t know why Kennedy dropped, but it is clear that:

   1. It was by her initiative, not the Governor’s.
   2. Not because she wasn’t going to get it.
