#1 I'm thinking severe depression exacerbated by alcoholism.

#2 "On Thursday, a person close to the governor claimed she was facing possible tax and "nanny" problems, and there were media rumors that her marriage was on the rocks. A Kennedy spokesman complained that the mudslinging demeaned what had been a fair process."

Translation: The tax, nanny, and marriage rumors are true, and you're mean to bring it up.

#3 If she is so interested in public service, why doesn't she RUN for public office? She and her family are rich enough that they should be able to afford it.

#4 Run, Rambler? Her?

She and her family are rich enough that they think they should be able to ~~afford~~ buy it.

There - fixed.

#8 "After the beating that she took, a sane person would not want to subject themselves to that," said Doug Muzzio, a political science professor at Baruch College.

What the little hothouse flower got was not a beating. Ask Sarah Palin. Hell, ask Hillary, even. Both of them got it worse.

She just didn't get her divinely ordained Senate seat from that peasant Paterson.

#9 I'm thinking severe depression exacerbated by alcoholism.

Or she's being/been hammered by a small stroke.

#10 Nothing surprises me when it comes to these people. It just never ends.

The new book, Legacy of Secrecy: The Long Shadow of the JFK Assassination by Lamar Waldron, proposes that New Orleans Mafia boss Carlos Marcello orchestrated the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Though not a new theory, the book cites recently released prison testimony in which Marcello reportedly said, "Yeah, I had the son of a bitch killed. I'm glad I did. I'm sorry I couldn't have done it myself!" Marcello allegedly claimed that Jack Ruby, who killed Lee Harvey Oswald, was an associate.

#13 Even the Princess claimed while she was a viable selection the canard, "the Kennedys have always had to work harder to prove themselves." Are you kidding me? How hard did Uncle Ted have to work to have the cops, reporters and DA to swallow the, "I tried to save her" defense? Let's call them the "Wink and a nod Kennedys".

#20 On the other hand, John Jr.'s failures to pass the NY Bar Exam were loudly trumpeted on the front page of the Daily News.

#23 Didn't Joe the First make his money by bootlegging? Then he became an ambassador.
Joe Jr was supposed to become president, but he got killed trying to be a bigger hero than JFK.
So Joe Sr had to buy the election for JFK.
