"Actually, there were probably dozens of plots to kill Kennedy, because everybody hated Kennedy but the public," .

Actually I was in the AF in San Angelo, Texas at the time. Lived off base and was playing Bridge with a neighbor and his wife when he exclaimed, "Good, they finally got him".

I couldn't believe my ears..Shocked that anybody could have said such a thing.

Later it made more sense when I learned that Jackie said, "See, they really love you here.", minutes before Jack was shot. They seemed to know it was a big risk being there. This was LBJ's territory.

Jackie didn’t say the “See? They really love you (Mr. President)”. That was the governor’s wife.

That comment was made in the political sense as the next election was coming up and the ticket was in danger of losing.

Could have been said of ANY state in the South at that time Totally meaningless.
