Is this really how the Kennedy dynasty in Massachusetts ends?
After a century of political treachery, chicanery and duplicity, not to mention scandal and depravity to the max, what was once called America’s First Family is going to be put out of business by … Ed Markey?
Ed Markey? The guy who’s been an invisible man in Congress since Gerald Ford was president? A lightweight’s lightweight, a glad-handing political weathervane with a comb over who in 2017 congratulated “the Boston Patriots” and who seems to think the Twin Drive In is still open in Medford.
Ed Markey, the Man That Time Forgot.
It’s not just the polls that indicate that a political era is coming to an end Tuesday. You see the trend in social media, on the newspapers’ message boards, in the preponderance of Markey yard signs, even in JoJoJo Kennedy’s 4th Congressional District.
It’s hard to keep a dynasty going, in any type of endeavor, and everything has to end at some point.
But Ed Markey? Whose first vote in the Senate was “Present.” Who was elected to the House the first time with something like 21% of the vote, in a special-election primary.
Can you imagine any of the real Kennedys ever rolling over for … Ed Markey?
Once upon a time, if they’d been behind like this, the Kennedys would have just plain stolen the election. Everyone knows about the 1960 presidential election, but 100 years ago, a Congressman named Peter Tague crossed the original Joe Kennedy over some World War I issue.

80 years of Kennedys...
Darn.
I was hoping the Kennedys were going extinct.
I always thought there would be one decent Kennedy that would live an upstanding life and run as conservative.
Never happened.
It’s just a reprieve. There was another period (before JoJo) where there were no Kennedys in federal or major state office.
Well there is Senator John Kennedy from Louisiana.
Well, I would disagree that every American knows about the 1960 election.
I didn’t read the real story until well into adulthood.
I was raised by the fake Camelot generation.
MA politics are a lost cost anyway.
He seems like a good guy...as Senators go...
Not yet! There are still small armies of senior citizens waiting in anticipation to pull the lever for a Kennedy. Being delusional, liberals see a young guy named Kennedy versus an old guy named...whatever. The young Kennedy could have a third eye on his forehead, won’t matter. What are the latest odds?
“I always thought there would be one decent Kennedy that would live an upstanding life and run as conservative.”
Didja ever think a flatbacking mulatto female could run for national office ?
JFK jr. was going to run as a Republican and Hillary offed him.
After reading the first couple of sentences, I knew.
They can always open a water safety school
Face it, nobody under 50 really knows or cares who the Kennedys are or were. For them it’s just the name of another dead president.
Most corrupt political family in the last fifty years!!!!!
Next, the Bushes.
LOL - good one banana...
“They can always open a water safety school“
Maybe a driving or flight school...

“I always thought there would be one decent Kennedy that would live an upstanding life and run as conservative.”
The closest could have been JFK Jr. but hillary had him killed because of the political threat he was to her.
