Kerry, Democrats support Rep. Markey as Senate successor in Massachusetts
Democrats are working swiftly to line up behind Rep. Ed Markey as Massachusetts' next senator and avoid a potentially damaging Democratic primary next year in the race to succeed Sen. John Kerry.
Less than 24 hours after announcing his interest in Kerry's Senate seat late Thursday, Rep. Ed Markey received public support from Kerry himself, Victoria Kennedy, wife of the late Sen. Edward Kennedy, and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, which steers Democratic Senate campaigns, in an outpouring of support designed to keep other would-be Democratic candidates from entering the race.
From a Kerry statement released Friday: While I began last week to formally step out of politics and it's very important that I respect the apolitical nature of the post I hope to soon occupy, as Massachusetts' senior senator today and as a colleague of Ed Markey's for 28 years, I'm excited to learn of and support his decision to run for the United States Senate.

There isn't a more stupid person on energy than this bozo. Perfect fit for Massachusetts.
