Some of the leading Swifties are MA residents, and thus are constituents of Lurch. Let’s see if they start anything.

Are those guys still fighting off Kerry’s lawyers?

No, the legal cases ended back in around 2006. The group also formally disbanded that year.

The perfect man to negotiate with the Russian, Iran, China, North Korea and Islamists. I am sure that Code Pink is tickled pink.

Since they’re all BFFs it should make for a great family reunion.

Who will be appointed by Patrick? Did some credible infos leak already?

Valkyriepundit on December 15, 2012 at 9:16 AM

Yeah, the biggest rumor flying around Bawston is that Patrick will appoint Chappaquidick Fats’ widow Victoria to the seat.

“Chosen”? That’s a curious phrasing.

He may nominate a candidate, who is approved with the advice and consent of the Senate.

JeffWeimer on December 15, 2012 at 10:24 AM

My point exactly but not a completely nefarious use of the term – He does CHOOSE who to put up for nomination.

But better terms would be “selects” or “nominates”… this way it sounds like he’s throwing out a pokeball… (John Kerry, I choose you!)

I thought they got rid of the Gov appointing vacant Senate seats when Romney was gov. Did they change it back? Will there be a special election and is there any Dem bench strength? I mean, criminy, that stupid woman who beat Brown was the best they could come up with this year?

I fully support getting Kerry out of the Senate. He is just a do nothing, blue nosed elitist who marries right women.

karenhasfreedom on December 15, 2012 at 10:14 AM

Yes, they did change it back, when Ted died. They think the appointment power is okay only when Democrats are in the Governorship.
