Rep. Patrick Kennedy Decision Not to Seek Re-election ~ GOOD Get Lost!
Rhode Island Democrat Rep. Patrick Kennedy personally announcing his decision not to seek re-election to the House of Representatives this fall. Kennedy said his like was now going to take a "new direction," and he thanked the people of Rhode Island for the opportunity to serve.
Patrick Kennedy : "My life is taking a new direction and I will not be a candidate for re-election this year"
This is more like the REAL reason why.............
Poll: Rep. Kennedy vulnerable in Nov. Analyst: It could be the race of his career
Congressman Patrick Kennedy may be facing his most difficult re-election campaign in 16 years, according to an exclusive WPRI-12 Poll released this week.
The poll shows 31 percent of those interviewed said they would “consider another” candidate and 28 percent said they would “vote to replace” Kennedy. Those who would re-elect the eight-term Congressman came in at 35 percent. Five percent weren’t sure.
Kennedy’s numbers are even bleaker when you go statewide: of the 500 polled in both districts, a mere 35 percent give Kennedy a favorable rating, with a 62 percent unfavorable rating. He fared slightly better in District 1 with a 42 percent favorable and 56 percent unfavorable.
“This could become the race of Patrick Kennedy’s life,” said Eyewitness News analyst and pollster Joe Fleming. “It depends on how strong his opponent is. If [they] can raise money, this could become a very serious race.”
Wild Thing's comment........
Good riddance to the Kennedy era!!!!!!
“Social Justice.” he mentions. Social justice...just a nice way of saying communism for the Kennedys.
Dang it’s good! If revenge is a dish best served cold, this one is right out of the freezer!
Good riddance to one of the most corrupt political families in American history. You won’t be missed.

Agreed. The end of the Kennedy political error. Good riddance.

He was losing support so he jumped ship. I hope more and more Dems Jump ship. And no more Kennedys for a while. There will be a drop in liquor and drug sales in DC.

He can now do his bidding for Hugo Chavez without being encumbered with his House of Representatives conflicts of interest. Claims are that he's out of touch with his constituents in Rhode Island, could be, when those constituents are located in Venezuela.

Whatever the reason, good bye and good riddance!

He's taking a different direction ? Hmmm...does that mean he'll be running booze instead of drinking it.
