As Twitchy told you last week, Ben Rhodes praised the Democrats’ picking Rep. Joe Kennedy to deliver their State of the Union response as an embrace of “the future.”
Joe Kennedy is the future. Glad to see the Democrats embracing that.

But Rhodes isn’t the only Obama flack singing Kennedy’s praises. Former Obama White House press secretary Josh Earnest is pretty stoked, too:
.@joshearnest: When you are in a party like the #Democrats, you draw your strength from a diversity of voices. @RepJoeKennedy is a great messenger for the Democratic party.

A diversity of voices? He's a Kennedy. Who's on tap for 2019, Hillary?

I agree. Rich white males are the best messenger ever for the Democrat party.

LOL. Diversity of voices???? What a joke!! You either believe same exact thing, or you are a racist/xenophobe or anti-women. Not one ounce of diversity

Whitebread McDynastyboy will speak in vague, soaring terms about unification and pragmatism and it won't inspire anyone
