DescriptionPROVIDENCE, Rhode Island (AP) -- Rep. Patrick Kennedy has decided not to follow in his father's footsteps and make a bid for the U.S. Senate -- at least not yet.

The 37-year-old Kennedy, about to begin his sixth term in Congress, believes he can better serve Rhode Islanders from his place on the powerful House Appropriations Committee, said his spokesman, Ernesto Anguilla, ending speculation that the congressman would try to challenge incumbent Republican Sen. Lincoln Chafee in 2006.
