Goodnight now! Patrick Kennedy won’t seek re-election in Rhode Island

democrat-logoKnowing he had not chance of winning in November, Patrick Kennedy has decided not to seek re-election for the seat representing Rhode Island in the U.S. Congress. The Associated Press was told by a Democrat official spoke to The under the condition that his name not be used. Bye Bye Loser! We will remember “what a joke” Scott Brown’s campaign was too.

The decision by the eight-term congressman comes less than a month after a stunning Republican upset in the race for the Massachusetts Senate seat his late father, Edward Kennedy, held for almost half a century.

Patrick Kennedy has been in and out of treatment for substance abuse since crashing his car outside the U.S Capitol in 2006. Still, he has been comfortably re-elected twice since then, after making mental health care his signature issue in Washington.
