CONGRESSWOMAN NIKI TSONGAS – A WORTHY SUCCESSOR TO TED KENNEDY
August 26, 2009
since it’s inevitable that a democrat will fill the kennedy seat, instead of filling it with hacks like marty meehan, etc., why not fill the seat with a WOMAN???
NIKI TSONGAS is the first woman in 25 years to be elected to congress from massachusetts, and is also the widow of the late Sen. Paul Tsongas, who served in the Senate from 1979-1985, and was elected in 1978, defeating then two term incumbent Sen. Edward Brooke in an upset.
Later, Paul Tsongas would become the only man ever to defeate Bill Clinton in a Presidential election, defeating Clinton in the “panda bear” New Hampshire primary of 1992.
NIKI TSONGAS has done it all. she’s an attorney, she’s raised three kids, she helped her husband with his congressional and senate and presidential campaigns, and now she’s in her second term representing the good people of Lowell MA.
I happen to know and like NIKI TSONGAS. so i’m a little biased.
but i happen to think the world of her.
and if we’re a little poorer for being without the late, great PAUL TSONGAS, we’re all a little richer for having NIKI TSONGAS.
NIKI TSONGAS IS THE OBVIOUS AND WORTHY SUCCESSOR TO SEN. TED KENNEDY IN THE US SENATE.
