As a Kennedy, he was a failure. He road the family coat tails but was never able to ride his name to anything other than political victory in his own state.
The news is now discussing Mary Jo and his loss to Carter. I dare the Dems to push Ted Kennedy's name nationally, they will get an even bigger backlash.
I hope you don't get zotted, you bring up a dem fallacy that needs to be discussed and debunked.
I don't know who wrote it, but someone referred to him as "the Shemp of the Kennedy family".
Maybe after we've endured 2 weeks of Kennedy crap we can finally bury the family as well. I'm from MA and I am so sick of hearing about the Kennedys.
NH here, You are correct ... The guy was a failure in all aspects, it was only his name that made any difference. And even then, he skulked around in the shadows, within the progressives circle.
He didn’t dare come out. Normal people new what he had done with Mary Jo was wrong, any way you looked at it.
It is a Dem fallacy.
