WASHINGTON (AP) — Rhode Island Rep. Patrick Kennedy said Tuesday he’s not returning $6,600 in donations he got from Norman Hsu, a prominent Democratic donor whose criminal past was recently revealed.Several top Democrats, including 2008 presidential candidates Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama, Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry and Kennedy’s father, Sen. Edward Kennedy, have said they will return Hsu’s donations or give them to charity.

Rep. Kennedy will keep the money because there is no indication that Hsu’s contributions to him were illegal, according to his chief of staff, Adam Brand.

Immediately after this announcement, Mr. Kennedy claimed he was late for a vote on the floor of the Congress and rammed his car into a concrete barrier.
