"If I knew someone was trapped in a car in the water and likely to drown, I would try to save them. I wouldn't even have to know their name."

Amen to that. I would too. People who are dedicated to saving other people tend to look unkindly upon those who drive their car off a bridge and leave someone to drown.

Not only was the girl left trapped in the car by Kennedy for an eternity of sufering the knowledge that she was about to die while the car slowly filled up with water, it takes four minutes to suffocate, Jorge.

Stare at the second hand of a clock for four minutes. Don't move. Don't take your eyes off the second hand as it travels one revolution of the arc four times. Breath as slowly and shallowly as possible for as much of the four minutes as you dare.

Four minutes can be a surprisingly long time.

While it might have been an accident when he drove off the bridge, it was NO ACCIDENT that Kennedy left that girl to die in such a horrible way.

You're not going to change any hearts or minds by throwing a tantrum and accusing us of being insensitive about an accident, when it's not an accident we're talking about.

Unless you are claiming Kennedy PURPOSELY drove his car into a canal to drown Mary Jo, then it WAS an ACCIDENT.

You don't know the kind of panic that might have precipitated his actions immediately following this accident.

The fact remains that these kinds of attacks IMHO betray a real weakness in Kennedy opponents to challenge him on his politics.
