Patrick Kennedy Returned to Congress

Do you remember the member of Congress who crashed his car late one night in DC and told the police that he was on his way to the Capitol to vote? The one who somehow escaped having a Breathalyzer test administered? The one who soon announced that he was not drunk but just on medication? The one who checked himself into rehab anyway? The one who is the son of Senator Edward Kennedy of Chappaquiddick fame? Well, an overwhelming majority of the citizens of Rhode Island returned him, Patrick Kennedy, to Congress last month.

Apparently they were unable or unwilling to find a better person to represent them. I know RI is a small state but surely they could have produced something better than a supercilious drunk.
