An unlikely comeback for KKT

As Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign winds down, the prospects of a cabinet post relaunching the political career of Kathleen Kennedy Townsend look less and less likely.

Maryland Democratic Delegation finalized, Glendening and Kennedy Townsend selected as add-on’s

Former Gov. Parris Glendening and former Lt. Gov. Kathleen Kennedy Townsend were selected by the state Democratic Central Committee as un-pledged add-on delegates to represent Maryland at the Democratic National Convention, this morning.

Despite their titles, Kennedy Townsend and Glendening have endorsed candidates during the primary cycle; Kennedy Townsend has been a vocal supporter of Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) for several months, while Glendening endorsed Gov. Bill Richardson (D-N.M.) last December and has not officially endorsed another candidate since Richardson ended his campaign in January. Richardson, himself, endorsed Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) in March.

An additional 15 at-large delegates and another 9 delegates selected from party leaders and elected officials were selected. Of these 24 delegates, which are tied to the state's popular vote, which Obama carried in the Feb. 12 primary by 24 points, 15 are pledged Obama supporters and 9 are pledged Clinton supporters. Four additional pledged at-large alternates, three of which are Obama supporters, were also selected.

Kennedy Townsend stumps in Indiana

Sen. Hillary Clinton is playing the nostalgia card in Indiana, but in a different way than usual, as former Lt. Gov. Kathleen Kennedy Townsend is taking a prominent role in her presidential campaign. Today, she’ll join the Senator and former President Bill Clinton at four stops across the Hoosier State.

The 1968 Indiana Democratic primary was the first contest her father, Sen. Robert Kennedy, took part in, where he unexpectedly defeated favorite son Gov. Roger Branigin and Minnesota Sen. Eugene McCarthy.

Kennedy Townsend will appear with the Clintons at a festival for South Bend’s Dyngus Day, a Polish holiday that celebrates the end of Lent and a political tradition in the state. She will then continue on with the former president at “Solutions for America” rallies in Rochester, Logansport and West Lafayette.

Indiana, which some consider the last true toss-up in the Democratic race, goes to the polls on May 6.
