But (perhaps ominously for the fall campaign) the right-wing Web sites were also aflame. The customary Photoshopped pictures of Mary Jo Kopechne in a sinking 1967 Oldsmobile were replaced by photos of Hillary, her hands raised, her mouth open, panic stricken in the Olds' backseat.
As one poster summed up the red-state reaction on a California thread: "Can't drive, can't fly, can't ski, can't skipper a boat - but they know what's best for us."
Ted Kennedy's back in the spotlight. It was fun yesterday. He'll soon know how long that sensation lasts.
Howie Carr is a columnist for The Boston Herald.

Not sure whether I have to excerpt but what caught my eye was the reference to the person on Free Republic from whom I stole my (modified) tag line. Moderator, feel free to mess with this.

"As one poster summed up the red-state reaction on a California thread"A rather disingenuous way of not mentioning Free Republic...

Hey. Thats a big thumbs up for you on that one, my FRiend.
I can't even imagine what is going on over at the DUmp over this little gem by Teddy.
In fact, I'll bet the author is a member there and a lurker here.

Actually, I’ve heard Howie refer to Free Republic on his radio show on more than one occasion.
