Ya can't get good help these days.

If anybody cares, it looks like Caroline Kennedy took her name out of consideration for the New York Senate seat vacated by Hillary Clinton.

Turns out, during the vetting process, they found a problem with Caroline's household help and her taxes.
ALBANY — Problems involving taxes and a household employee surfaced during the vetting of Caroline Kennedy and derailed her candidacy for the Senate, a person close to Gov. David A. Paterson said on Thursday, in an account at odds with Ms. Kennedy’s own description of her reasons for withdrawing.
Ya know, you just can't get good help these days.

I figured that she had a death watch on Uncle Teddy and was positioning to take his Massachusetts seat. No one in Mass would argue against her, and I'm sure she could get around any little thing like a residency requirement.

Taxes and housekeepers, huh?
