Caroline Kennedy

If this is a real possibility, and not just to shut Hillary up, I can't explain how much this means to millions of women across the country. At dinner last night, while I was telling John about the then rumor, I could barely get it out with out my voice cracking. If you would have asked me 4 years ago what my dream ticket would be I would have easily said Obama/C. Kennedy in a second, but would have prefaced it with it'll never happen. If he chose her and she accepted, it would begin to heal so many deep wounds. I mean I can't even type this without getting a little choked up. Up until his death, I was excited that John Jr. would have been President sometime within our lifetime, I think most of us knew it to be true. When that plane crashed into the ocean I just couldn't believe it, I mean I couldn't stop watching the television, similar to my reaction to 9-11, similar in emotion it conjures, as well. Caroline has always been so private and out of the spotlight I just thought the possibility of her getting into heavy politics was an unrealistic fantasy, and could totally respect her just as much for not wanting to play a huge part in the public side of the family business. In fact it only made me love her more. I'm not getting my hopes up, but if we're inaugurating Senator Barack Obama AND Caroline Kennedy next January, wow, I know I could die a happy girl. I'll get into this more if it indeed seems that this is a real possibility.

MmmKay, can I just say I was just a little overzealous (wrong)? I'm still holding out hope, so I'm not changing a thing (except the title). I have heard no names that have seemed like a perfect match yet, so like Cheney (only not so sinister), I'm hoping they decide that there is no one else, so why not her? I apologize, I've been a little overwhelmed lately and read into what I was hearing, probably mostly because I wanted to. I make lots of mistakes in my life, I'll just do better to try to not post them publicly. Today was a crazy day and a product of my trying really hard to keep up with the blog, only content suffered, lesson learned. Thanks Misty, I know I'm in trouble when my sister is correcting me on my shit (she's not uninformed, just insanely busy).
