I thought Caroline Schlossberg was trying to get the seat.

Kennedy starts upstate tour as she eyes Senate
Dec 17 11:59 AM US/Eastern

SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) - Caroline Kennedy is meeting with upstate New York politicians and power brokers as she begins her campaign for the Senate seat being vacated by Hillary Rodham Clinton.

The daughter of the late President John F. Kennedy is favored to take the seat should Clinton be confirmed as President-elect Barack Obama's secretary of state.

The outreach that Kennedy started Wednesday in cities including Syracuse is similar to Clinton's "listening tour" in 1999 and 2000 when she first ran for the Senate.

Like Clinton, Kennedy faces criticism because she's never been elected to public office. Some also worry she would favor New York City interests over the rest of the state.
