It would be nice if, before Governor Paterson makes her the next senator from New York, Caroline Kennedy would answer a few questions from the press:
ABC Newsโ Rick Klein Reports: Caroline Kennedy, kicking off her Hillary Clinton-style โlistening tourโ of upstate New York on Wednesday, talked publicly about her interest in Clintonโs Senate seat for the first time.
She then proceeded to no-comment her way through a series of questions from a pack of curious New York-based reporters.
As debuts go before the hungry press in the state she hopes to represent, it was less than a smashing performance โ and offers just a hint of the scrutiny to come.
Among the questions she didnโt answer, per the Syracuse Post-Standard:
โWhat do you say to New Yorkers who think youโre not qualified?โ
โAre you ready for this, Ms. Kennedy? Youโre not going to answer questions at all?โ
โWhat do you say to New Yorkers who think youโre not ready or qualified for this job?โ
โWhat do you think your greatest qualification is to be senator?โ
โYouโre seeking public office and you donโt want to answer questions from reporters, Maโam? When can we expect you to answer questions?โ
โHave you ever been to Syracuse before?โ
Might I suggest, โI can see Syracuse from my apartment in Manhattan!โ
