It wasn't that Kennedy was blindsided is was because he was blinded by booze.

I remember that interview and the way his candidacy unraveled as people realized he was running because his name was Kennedy and for no other reason.

What is it about the shape of those ugly Kennedy heads that attracts bullets that just explode them in bone and brain matter all over everybody?

Ohhhh. RIP Mr Mudd

the thing i like most about Ted Kennedy: he once gave a courageous speech defending accountability for teachers in front of the NEA, a teacher's union who contribute heavily to Dems and strongly opposed the Bush-Kennedy No Child Left Behind
