Back in 2008, Caroline Kennedy — the only surviving child of former President John F. Kennedy — delivered a rousing endorsement of Barack Obama. “I have never had a president who inspired me the way people tell me that my father inspired them,” she wrote in the New York Times back then. “But for the first time, I believe I have found the man who could be that president — not just for me, but for a new generation of Americans.”
According to the book, the Kennedys used to be split about their support for Obama. The case for him was championed by the late Senator Ted Kennedy along with Caroline. Those opposed, and who supported Hillary Clinton, included Robert Kennedy Jr. (Bobby), son of the former Attorney General, and his sisters — Kathleen Kennedy Townsend and Kerry Kennedy.
Gradually, Caroline began to change her tune and side with Bobby and Kathleen [Kennedy Townsend] against the Obamas. Unlike Jackie, who was completely a-political, Caroline is a liberal with a capital L. When Obama didn’t raise taxes to balance the budget, Caroline marked him down. In her eyes, he‘s a mess because he doesn’t follow the liberal bible on politics. More important, Caroline discovered that the Obamas didn’t give a damn about her support.
“It really annoyed Caroline when comparisons were made by the media between Michelle and Jackie. Caroline had a word for such comparisons; she called them ‘odious.’ She really got annoyed. And when she began to fall out of love with the Obamas, love was replaced by outright scorn. Now she says things about Obama like, ‘I can’t stand to hear his voice any more. He’s a liar and worse.’”.....snip~

Seems all is not well in Camelot. The Kennedys have been quite silent in coming out and talking about Obama the Way Ted and Caroline Started off. You don't see any of them in the Media giving him support thru that means. While I am sure they will be Good little Kennedys and support the Democrats Party and Obama. I am inclined to believe there is some sort of riff between the Obama's and the Kennedys. Which wouldn't bother the Clintons in the slightest. Yet in the same book they to Odds with Obama.
I have not been watching much TV but it seems to me Obama use to have quite a few Demos really out and making the rounds for him. People Like the Kennedys, Boxer, Feinstein, Emanuel and Daley. IMO Obama is burning quite a few bridges as he play the game. Quite interesting to see the Demos falling apart.
Has anyone thought about if Obama loses the Election what his Post Presidency will be like with the Media and Coverage? Will he become like Bilbo and be putting himself out for the DNC?
