Republicans should look no further than the Bush Tragedy (no way it's going to be known as a Dynasty) should they choose to cast stones.

And I do think that if Caroline Kennedy wants to be the US Senator out of NY, she should have to fight fair and square with other candidates to prove that she should be senator. I do not believe in appointments based solely on name recognition.
