jane swift will make her comeback. she did makes some mistakes, but all in all, they were pretty minor. some people in massachusetts just decided to go on a witch hunt and they tried their best to destroy swift's character.
i think she could challenge kennedy. sure, swift used a state helicopter unathorized so she could visit her sick child. kennedy, on the other hand, left a young woman at the bottom of a lake and didnt bother calling authorities until he sobered up.
which is worse?
Weren't her approval ratings very, very low though, Walter? I think she's done with politics.
That's the rub. Political losers can make comebacks by stumping for local candidates in tight races--Nixon did so famously in 1966. In MA, a loser politico-hack like Jacques could make a comeback just by shilling for certain Democrats locked in tight primaries. Swift has no such option, because in MA, the Republican party is essentially defunct and bereft of local candidates to support.
