More losers, more crime, more poverty equals more cop jobs, judge jobs, money for prison constructions and so on.
That last sentence almost made me spit coffee all over my computer’s monitor.
Teddy and Patches would love to do the same to Joan...
There is another theory aired by the Discovery Channel that Kennedy wasn’t in the 1967 Oldsmobile when it went off the bridge:
They left the party with Ted at the wheel. Then he looked in the mirror and thought he saw a police car approaching. Fearing the publicity (a DUI would’ve been harder to beat) Kennedy pulled over, got out and told Mary Jo to drive on. He then jumped into the sound and swam to Edgartown. A frightened and confused Mary Jo drove on into the night on unlit roads unknown to her, and ran off the bridge into Poucha Pond, where she died of asphyxiation inside the submerged car (that last is not in doubt).
Kennedy’s careless attitude over the next ten hours was thus due to his ignorance of what had happened to Mary Jo Kopechne.
Who knows what the toughest fight has been for someone named Kennedy?Pulling off the murder of Marilyn Monroe has to be at the top. That even beats getting away with the manslaughter of Mary Jo.

It's a family thang
In Hell, Satan has a 'Kennedy Wing' in their honor
and who could forget, Frm. Pres. Jimmah "Malaise" Carter, did basically the same thing....during the same period. 
Way too many of us believe that these curs are simply misguided souls, trying to do what they think is right for the country.
I suggest, and have for many years, that the Democrat Party is an anti American Party. Their design is to make the United States into a socialist nation completely dependent on the "State", of which they (the Democrat Party) shall have complete control through typical socialist voting procedures.
And now our eyes (to anyone who cares enough to see) have been open to the fact that the RINO Party has joined them in this internal war for the socialist control of "we the people".
We may well have lost this war, but it will never be over for many of us, and those that will come after us.

I believe someone else covered his ass.
That’s why the fight was so tough. That’s a lot of ass to cover.
That explains it in a nutshell.
The Kennedys had/have money; none had/have any class...with the exception of Jackie's kids, because she kept them from their cousins!
Kennnedy should have been put in jail a long time ago and for many years.
He was also the biggest victim of Watergate - the probing of personal lives that started with Nixon made sure that Teddy would never be nominated.
I concur, except for the "may" part
The Republic is dead, rotting in the ground, people like Kennedy taking great delight in pissing on the corpse

I also heard that he jumped out of the drivers seat after passing the cop and that mary jo could barely reach the brake pedals - then they both went off the bridge.

Well, this election cycle is one where the battle is already lost since the conservative candidates are none existent, locked out of the process.
Washington is so corrupt, so sold out, so power hungry, our institution's so broken nothing but outright collapse will eventually fix our Republic.
The fight for our Republic now lay in passing on the values and principles of free men and liberty to our children and those who understand the horrible alternative.
...and those that will come after us.

>>>who had to fight back after Chappaquiddick
I’m sorry but...anyone who thinks that there was something “courageous” or noble about Ted Kennedy’s “fight back after Chappaquiddick” needs to spend a few hours at the bottom of that pond with MaryJo Kopechne...
Oh, I think Lyndon Baines Johnson and his War on Poverty gets a lions share of the blame. Teddy runs second in this race.
