Ted Kennedy Vacancy Update

By W. James Antle, III on 9.22.09 @ 3:06PM

The Massachusetts State Senate has now passed a bill allowing Gov. Deval Patrick to appoint an interim replacement for the late Sen. Edward M. Kennedy. The House already passed the bill. It needs to pass both houses of the legislature one more time and be signed by the governor to become law. Expect lobbying for the interim slot to intensify, though the governor is unlikely to appoint anyone who plans to run in the special election to fill the remainder of Kennedy's term.

Believe it or not there is serious speculation afoot in Massachussetts that the well known tank commander and card carrying member of the ACLU Michael Dukakis is going to be appointed!
