CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The two sons of Sen. Edward M. Kennedy strode into the lobby of the Omni hotel on Tuesday morning and were besieged by delegates, reporters, and well-wishers. Photos were taken, sound bites recorded, and a flurry of handshakes exchanged.
Its like hes still in Congress, Ted Jr. quipped as he waited for his brother, Patrick, a former US representative from Rhode Island.
The sons arrived in Charlotte for an afternoon reception for the Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the United States Senate, which is being built at the University of Massachusetts Boston, and to attend a video tribute to their father later Tuesday during the opening night of the Democratic National Convention. Joseph Kennedy III, candidate for Congress form Massachusetts, will introduce the video.
The video, in part, would replay some of Kennedys debate performance against Mitt Romney in their 1994 Senate race, and resurrect issues -- economic and social -- that characterized Democratic differences with Romney both then and now.

I think his dad made him sign up for the U.S. Army. I heard he mistakenly signed up for the full four year tour but was able to have it modified to a two-year draft hitch -- he served a total of 16 months.
What about his waitress wrestling prowess? I heard that he excelled especially the tag-team competition with fellow senators.
Lots to honor I hope the kid gets enough time.
And a traitor who passed secrets to the Soviets to harm Jimmy Carter (As if Carter needed help).
LLS
My God,will they ever go away?
.
Wait a minute. Are you talking about Ted Kennedy or Bill Clinton? Or some other Democrat?
The Edward M. Kennedy insta-TOOT. Fat, stupid and drunk all his life.
About the only thing Jimmy Carter ever said that I liked was “If Ted Kennedy runs for president, I will whip his ass”.
‘Is this Clinton Country ..?????”

“waitress sandwich” will not be mentioned either I am sure
You forgot about how he betrayed the South Vietnamese.How many got killed when they lost the means to defend themselves?
Huh? What do you mean “burp” and “hiccup?”
These boys are proud of their Dad after he had his marriage annulled after 25 years making them both bastards.
He turned his wife into a drunk then drowned his pregnant girlfriend.
Yeah they should be really proud.
That picture is what always bothered me. In the book “Senatorial Privilege”, that diver, I think his name was Joe Farrah, or maybe Farraro or something similar, said if Kennedy had informed the authorities immediately, there would have been a good chance he could have rescued her alive.
Jack, Bobby and Teddy were brothers.
Old Joe was a bootlegger who bought Jack the POTUS with fraud in Chicago and West Virginia.
Old Joe lobotomized his own daughter, too. The knife was about the size of a butter knife. Apparently, she was awake during all of this, and the doc quit when she became incoherent. Joe did not want her as ‘wild.’
IIRC, Joe’s principal mistress was Gloria Swanson.
His legacy is he and Chris Dodd sexually assaulting waitresses in Georgetown restaurants.
Yeah, he also fixed SSI /s
Thus my tagline...
