Re: Caroline Kennedy - You know... You know... You know...

I can&#39;t figure it out. If Caroline, had gone to a good Catholic school, they would have cured her of the &#34;uhms&#34; and &#34;you knows&#34; and her shyness, for sure. Must be a who$ kid you are thing. <BR> <BR>When I was in the parochial school you had to stand up next to your desk and repeat the question and then answer it in full and clear sentences; no uhms and uhs allowed! And for music grading you had to sing a song of the nuns choice, solo, and in front of the whole class. <BR> <BR>Poor Rick Visone; had a voice with a croak like a bullfrog.  <BR> <BR>And now you know why Catholics know it all and can&#39;t keep their mouths shut. &#40;I couldn&#39;t find a smiley guy to put here.&#41;  <BR> <BR>Cadge

Caroline Kennedy draws criticism after latest tour <BR>  <BR><a href="http://apnews.myway.com/article/20081229/D95CLHU80.html" target=_top>http://apnews.myway.com/article/20081229/D95CLHU80 .html</a> <BR> <BR><blockquote><hr size=0><!-quote-!><font size=1><b>quote:</b></font><p>... <BR> <BR>Two weeks ago, she took a quick upstate tour to talk to mayors but barely spoke to the media. Critics, including some Democrats, compared her lack of governmental experience to Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin&#39;s much-maligned credentials as a Republican candidate for vice president. <BR> <BR>She drew criticism from news organizations that she ducked basic questions about issues and wasn&#39;t specific about why she wants to be, or should be, New York&#39;s junior senator. <BR> <BR>In interviews over the weekend, she offered explanations for running that included the 9/11 attacks on Manhattan, where she has lived since the 1960s, Barack Obama&#39;s encouragement, and the commitment to public service by her father, President John F. Kennedy, and others in her family. <BR> <BR>For some, that was reminiscent of a 1979 interview that helped undo her uncle&#39;s presidential campaign. Sen. Edward Kennedy didn&#39;t clearly explain why he wanted to be president much beyond citing family history when questioned by CBS newsman Roger Mudd. <BR> <BR>...<!-/quote-!><hr size=0></blockquote>
