Kennedy Can't Wait

"I was under more of the impression before that he was going to run and was waiting in time [to declare his candidacy], but now he's deferred that decision," Kennedy said. "I have no plans of supporting anyone else at this juncture. I'm also not going to just wait indefinitely until he's made a judgment or a decision."

"You'd have to say that there's a number of people who are out there -- Barack and Hillary, if Barack runs and Hillary runs -- they're obviously very formidable figures," said Kennedy.

"They are ringing the bells, because they're talking about what people were, I think, concerned about during the course of the [congressional] election."
