Re: Opinion of Joe Kennedy III?

One of the most terrible members of Congress in my view.

Joe Barton, Louie Gohmert, Steve King, Charlie Rangel, David Vit

Meh. Very liberal voting record but nothing against him personally, one of the better current-gen Kennedys.

[Indy Texas]

Am I the only one who thinks he looks kind of like a ginger version of James Marsden?

[H. Ross Peron]

Seems okay for now. FF

I don't get the order of Joe Kennedys. The second one was the guy that died, but then the Congressman from the 90's is also termed either "the second" or "Junior". In truth, the guy this poll is about is Joseph Patrick Kennedy IV (in theory, I haven't checked all their middle names), but no one--includeing his family, I assume--seems to recognize that.

I can't find much to earn him "one of the worst members of Congress" on wikipedia. Only thing coming up is his vote against that one Amash bill. Is your hatred based on that alone, or something broader?

Joe Barton, Louie Gohmert, Steve King, Charlie Rangel, David Vitter, Michele Bachmann, Scott DesJarlais, Vern Buchanan, Paul Broun, Ted Cruz, Dana Rohrabacher, Sheila Jackson Lee, Trent Franks, Darrell Issa, Fred Upton, and Peter King... and you come up with Joe Kennedy III? You can find worse just in the MA delegation. Why?

[afleitch]

I'd do him...

FF (normal).

And you can add Joe Kennedy III to that list of awful Congresspeople.

That, plus the fact that he is a Kennedy (an automatic no-no on my list ) and is worshipped as some progressive hero when in reality he will be a less dramatic backbencher version of Patrick Kennedy (the one from Rhode Island).

[Zioneer]

Eh, sort of a "soft FF" for me. He seems relatively decent and progressive, and he hasn't done anything that offends me yet, so he's alright. And he may be better on banks than Barney Frank.

Then again, he's also a Kennedy, which is not one of the political dynasties I'm fond of... Meh, still FF. Perhaps he may replace Ed Markey after a couple of terms.
