Caroline Kennedy eyes Clinton Senate seat?

NEW YORK, Dec 6 (Reuters) - Caroline Kennedy, daughter of slain U.S. President John F. Kennedy, is considering pursuing the New York Senate seat Hillary Clinton will vacate to become secretary of state, The New York Times reported on Friday.

“I believe that she is considering it,” the newspaper quoted Kennedy's cousin, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., as saying, adding he had spoken to her about the matter during the past week.

“A lot of people the last couple of weeks have urged her to do it,” added Kennedy, another member of the Kennedy Democratic political dynasty. He recently removed himself from consideration for the seat, once held by his father, Robert F. Kennedy.
