Ted Kennedy runs unopposed or lightly opposed in most elections i.e. (Jack E. Robinson). He does seem to have a cult like following in Boston that can't be easily explained. Mitt Romney gave Ted a run for his money about ten years ago. Ted did bring up the "Mormon" thing in the middle of the race which seemed to help him. All in all Ted Kennedy was appointed Senator for life back in 1962 after a Kennedy family friend named Smith held the spot for Ted for two years. I have never voted for Ted but I would like to point out that Strom Thurmond seemed to be in the senate for a couple of terms too long. Peculiarities aren’t exclusive to the Northeast.

"Peculiarities aren’t exclusive to the Northeast"

You're calling Teddy the Swimmer a 'peculiararity"?

Sorry, that doesn't cut it by a LONG shot.
