Kennedy Wants It

It's official: rumors have become fact- Caroline Kennedy is officially throwing her hat into the ring for Hillary Clinton's Senate seat.

I'm still not sure what to think about this- I think there are worse choices, but I dislike the fact that her last name and the family connection to the seat give her some sense of entitlement. I don't like this encroachment of dynastic politics in America-- there are enough problems with our political system to begin with without encouraging stuff like this.

But again, she's not a bad choice from what I can see. Her resume is a little thin, but that's not necessarily a black mark against her.
