Joe Kennedy III to Deliver Response to State of the Union Address



The lefty Kennedy's continue their reemergence in the political spotlight.

The Hill reports:
Even though he’s a member of America’s most famous political family, Rep. Joe Kennedy III (D-Mass.) [grandson of Robert] has kept a relatively low profile since entering Congress in 2013.
That will change on Tuesday night, when the 37-year-old lawmaker gives the Democratic response to President Trump’s first State of the Union address... 
Selecting Kennedy is a nod to the idea of letting a new generation of Democrats bubble up and play a greater role in the party...
Democratic strategist David Wade called Kennedy “an inspired choice.”...
“He’s the best of both worlds: a fresh face with a storied name, lots of charisma and zero baggage,” Wade said. “His speeches go viral because he communicates in modern language. He doesn’t sound like he was invented in a focus group.”
In Illinois,  Chris Kennedy, son of Robert, is seeking the  Democratic Party primary nomination for Governor of Illinois in the 2018 election.

And Caroline's handlers continue polling to see where she has the best chance to "serve."

  1. I don't Know about about Chris, looked liked he was having a stroke remembering his lame talking points in Democratic primary debate on NBC5.

  2. It will be amusing if a Kennedy decides to lecture Trump about treating women with more respect ... (OK, Joe III could be the exception in the clan.)

  3. Joe Kennedy was together with Anderson Cooper before he filmed his response to Trump's STOU address. So that explains the.... oh, um, never mind.
