Politics as a family business

Tuesday, 9th December 2008

Well, it's an amusing read, even if it wasn't meant that way. Washington Post columnist Ruth Marcus dislikes nepotism and dynasties, but hopes Caroline Kennedy becomes a senator because the lady is the country's "national princess". Oh, and it would also be interesting to see the newcomer "shove aside Andrew Cuomo, her cousin Kerry's former husband."

Welcome to the nineteenth century.
