HTN: Caroline for Senate?

Several media reports state that Caroline Kennedy has spoken with Governor David Paterson about taking over Hillary Clinton's seat in the U.S. Senate. In recent years, JFK's daughter has been active in New York City educational causes. She also played an advisory role in Barack Obama's campaign, working on the team that advised Obama on his vice-presidential choice. The President-elect has not commented on the idea of Ms. Kennedy filling Ms. Clinton's seat. Obama told NBC's "Meet the Press," quote, "The last thing I want to do is get involved in New York politics." He did call Kennedy one of his dearest friends.
