Gillibrand to succeed Clinton in Senate

Raw Story

New York Gov. David Patterson has selected "Representative Kirsten Gillibrand, a 42-year-old congresswoman from upstate who is known for bold political moves and centrist policy positions, to fill the United States Senate seat vacated by Hillary Rodham Clinton, according to a person who spoke to the governor early Friday," told the New York Times.

Gillibrand's selection throws a wrench in political speculation over who would succeed Clinton -- probably bets were on New York State Attorney General Andrew Cuomo. More follows.

Yes it does. Go see.

Sorry, Caroline, but you're probably too nice to be a Senator anyway. Perhaps it is better that you stay untainted by the shithole of Congress. At least this way us old farts' vision of Camelot can stay pure.
