Dipping a toe where it shunt GO!1 If CLINTON wins it's MACHINE, if OBAMA it's charisma!1
Now, THAT said, let's move on to endorsements. Now, Ted KENNEDY, what Dem CAN'T favor him. We stuck by him against the wingnut ONSLAUGHTS that no Dem has ever withstood. AND, as one of his staffers said to me on the phone years ago, "We're forwarding your issue to your OWN state's Senator. EVERYBODY calls Senator KENNEDY."

I knew that.


Now, that said, (re: "endorsements") we know that Teddy is a lightning rod for Rethugs. The baggage, yadda.


As for Caroline, I'm sorry but the WHOLE PLANET loved her as the 3 & 4 yr old. HowEVER, she has lived her life perpetuating Camelot. This means WHAT, exactly?!1

2. Well, disclosure: I'm a KENNEDYite in the sense of Democratic Party heritage.
In 1960, when my older sister came home from college and I was 13, she was SCHOOL-GIRL-SMASHED over JFK, the new dude we didn't know.

I was for LBJ then, the heir to FDR and EXPERIENCED. O.K., fine.


Then we know what happened. The hate-LBJ thing, the East vs West. I'm still for LBJ - NOW. Yaas, despite Vietnam. I'm thinking: Voting Rights, Civil Rights, Medicare/Medicaid, and more.


And Ted KENNEDY is great. In fact, when WAY history is written, I believe he will be bigger than JFK and RFK. Heresy!1


Now, Caroline... I didn't like p.r. when DEAVER did it for RAYGUN, and I don't like it now!1
