One problem with Ted Kennedy. He's the senior senator from Massachusetts, Kerry is the junior senator. If a senator leaves to take another job, the governor appoints a new senator. Now our governor is a conservative republican and would appoint a republican. So by picking Ted Kennedy, Kerry would effectively lose two Democratic seats in the Senate - good news for those of you who are Republicans, bad news for the rest of us.

i believe they are int he final stages right now of passing a bill that would have who fills the seat done by an election instead of Romney choosing it.
