From Rasmussen Reports

Most Voters Like Caroline, But Only 37% Say She Is Fit for Senate
67% have a favorable view of Kennedy, including 25% who say their opinion of her is Very Favorable
Fifty-nine percent (59%) of voters say she would not be considered for the post if her last name was anything but Kennedy

» Commentary by Kris Lazaro (registered Democrat)

American politics is a funny thing. The daughter of slain president John F. Kennedy is planning to take over the Senate Seat that Hillary Clinton will be vacating next month, but speculations about her qualifications have risen. According to voters polled by Rasmussen Reports, 37% do not believe she would be fit for the Senate.

This author believes that Caroline would not be a great addition to the Senate, since she has had no formal governing experience. Her addition to the Senate would mostly be due to legacy, and although she would have clout (since her last name is Kennedy), she will not be a strong voice in the Senate. The governor should select a more qualilfied candidate and one who will serve the great state of New York with experience.
