W/ Teddy in his corner, and the Clintons out of the way Ohaha had a clear shot at the presidency.
Exactly! Ted Kennedy effectively passed John Kennedy's torch to Obama to carry the liberal cause when he gave his famous support speech.
“Ted Kennedy effectively passed John Kennedy’s torch to Obama to carry the liberal cause when he gave his famous support speech.”
He also passed along the Kennedy legacy of corruption: the same “ends-justifies-the-means” mentality that underlay the tricks and graft used to elect JFK (including having the mob “deliver” the vote in Chicago) were quite visible in the appalling tactics Obama thugs used to steal delegate votes through the caucus process, the laundering of illegal foreign contributions through “small donors” and the blatant thuggery visible in the New Black Panther Party’s voter intimation tactics. It was almost as if the city that had handed JFK the election in 1960 were being rewarded with the chance to elect “one of its own” a half century later.
