Make no mistake about it, the dems will suck this for everything they can get out of it, and the dumb masses in America will soak it up. They will remake Ted just like they did Michael Jackson and the dems will be lifted up.
The media will condemn anyone who dares say anything bad from today to the end of time.
Oh please. Ted is no Michael Jackson. MJ actually had talent (despite what some Freepers have implied). Ted contributed little of value to the average American life that would personalize his death to them.
The media didn’t have anything to do with what happened after MJ died. The public for better or worse made the decision to respond as they did. In this case the public doesn’t care about the Kennedy’s as they used to. Camelot died long ago...with JFK Jr. And even he couldn’t produce the hysteria that followed MJ.
Kennedy’s death holds significance to only the political set and maybe to people over 50 who remember Camelot but most of those people aren’t going to change their mind on this bill because Ted died as they are the ones who would be most effected by the legislation.
So bring on WellStone 2. Changes nothing for the public.
