I agree about the backlash coming.
The Chappiquiddic thing is being FORCED back with this. What fools. (Of course they are: If they weren't fools, they would never be liberals!)
I got an email this a.m. with the "Word of the Week":
"I'd rather go hunting with Dick Cheney than ride with Ted Kennedy".
That's a caustic replay from the Nizon days when the Libs were posting Nixon's picture and asking "Would you buy a used car from this man?" They stopped when someone said, "No, and I wouldn't ride in one driven by Ted Kennedy".
Just once, Dear God, I'd love to see some conservative who is being grilled by the senate and told by Ted that he's not in the mainstream, reply, "I'd be careful of that metaphor Senator, for yours passes under a pretty odious bridge". It would be fun to see Ted's veins swell and pop.
