I note the following statement in the article :

It was a quality Rep. Bill Delahunt, D-Mass., a long time Kennedy friend and colleague, said made him a "master political craftsman."
Delahunt described Kennedy as being the "kind of guy with 10,000 friends," but he said that he was also the "most generous politician" he knew.


IT IS EASY TO BE CALLED GENEROUS WHEN YOU'RE SPENDING OTHER PEOPLE's MONEY ! 'NUFF SAID.

The Kennedy family is to public service what the Borgia family was to Catholic service.

Kennedy’s career was made possible by the Founders’ inability to foresee that politicans would make the Senate into a lifelong career and live like Oriental potentates on the public dole.

A cry for term limits, in other words.

Having Lived in Massachusetts for 20 years, I will tell you why the state of Massachusetts re elected Teddy...because The democratic Party would not let anyone else in their party run against him in their Democratic Primary... Ted would win the Democratic Primary for Senate, and would never have anyone worthy of taking him out.. except that one time.. Mitt Romney ran against Ted Kennedy for Senate.. Thank you Mitt Romney for making Teddy sweat in that debate.
