Krazy Kennedy Klan Already Fighting Over Who Shall Inherit Chappequiddick Ted's Seat

Who will be the Senator from Hyannisport?

Ted Kennedy’s wife, Vicki, and his nephew, former congressman Joe Kennedy, are getting set for a bruising battle over who will succeed the ailing senator, according to a new book excerpted in the new issue of Vanity Fair magazine.

“Vicki is seen by all as an interloper and she is deeply resented by Ted’s children and many of the newphews,” Edward Klein writes in his new book, “Ted Kennedy: The Dream That Never Died,” due in stores next month.

“Joe, who sees himself as the only serious heir apparent, particularly loathes her control over his uncle and hence the family. Joe inherited his father’s ruthless gene. He is nothing if not aggressive. And anybody who tries to get between him and Ted’s Senate chair is in for a fight.”

Awesome. Can't wait to see which soft-handed, soft-brained inbred child of undeserved privilege inherits a political sinecure which the Constitution never intended to be passed by right of primogeniture.

Thanks to EdwardR.
