Teddy for Dems = Larry Craig for GOP

[OmahaBlueDog]

Both are good party men who have an off-field record that is horrifying.

I wouldn't be playing this endorsement up.

I'm editing this to add some clarification:

You may disagree, but here's my point

We know Ted Kennedy for his fine work in the Senate. Outside of our friendly confines (read: the MSM), Ted is remembered for being the Senator who got away with murder, and for running around drunk with no pants (at his own house, granted) during the William Kennedy Smith debacle.

If Larry Craig were to endorse Mitt, McCain, or Huck, all would say "Thanks but no thanks" because of the MSM thinking on the topic.

All I'm saying is that I think a Ted Kennedy (as opposed to a Caroline or an RFK jr) has a downside.

BTW... Nebraska votes so late that my choice of candidate won't matter (for those of you who think I have a pro-Hillary agenda here)

1. Are you out of your fucking mind?

I'm going to assume you are NOT a Hillary supporter. But you're hoping other people will think you are?

[cali]

6. no way do I think that's a Hillary supporter

it's clear what that thing is.

[cali]

2. Not even fucking close, genius.

What an asshole remark. GTFO and go back to Freeperville or some other slimepit.

[City Lights]

3. ....

:popcorn:

[Inuca]

4. Shame on you! n/t

[sunonmars]

5. me neither

I really like Ted Kennedy but if you thought Hillary had baggage. This man wrote the term in the dictionary.

[MadBadger]

9. See, when I think of baggage, I think of lying about getting your dick sucked by an intern

[maddiejoan]

27. When I think of lying and getting

your dick sucked by an intern, I think of a really good Saturday Night!

[MadBadger]

29. I'd agree....but would Hillary?

[maddiejoan]

31. Maybe

People of her generation used to have "key parties"

[Kucinich4America]

11. Well, if the Bush Crime Family murdered two of your brothers

and you lost a bunch of other family members through other tragic circumstances, you think you might drink a little?

[MadBadger]

16. LBJ is part of the Bush Crime family?

[Kucinich4America]

40. Well, he was an oilman from Texas, so it's entirely possible

at the very least, they have mutual friends. But I'll bet LBJ didn't know Jack Ruby in 1947. Dick Nixon and Prescott Bush did.

[sunonmars]

21. and when i think of baggage i think Mary Jo Kepechne

[Kucinich4America]

41. And when I see someone bitching about Mary Jo Kopechne, I think FREEPER

But then, most of your other posts have made me think that as well.

Is it too early to get a pizza in here?

[MadBadger]

7. Welcome to DU

enjoy your stay.

[dionysus]

12. lol

[dionysus]

10. moron.

n/t

[Adelante]

13. Where are these people coming from?

:crazy:

Welcome to DU, of course :hi:

[Hugabear]

20. I'm sure they're over here to witness the slugfest

This must be like heaven, for rethugs and freepers to witness what's going on over here.

Nevermind that once our nominee is chose, we'll all reunite and go after whichever slimebag they nominate.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

14. LOL. Ted Kennedy and Craig play exactly the same roles and have the same status and

credibility within their respective parties.

Is that what they're serving up where you, er, come from?

[MrsT]

15. No. eom

[DUyellow]

17. All this Teddy hate, where was it yesterday. GROW UP

[krabigirl]

18. No way. Ted Kennedy is nothing like Craig.

[Alexander]

19. Wow. Hillary must've had a meeting with her keyboard warriors.

They're polluting this board in force today.

[Stephanie]

23. She must have hired a few more.

The supply must be low, she's scraping the bottom.

[elizm]

25. Desperation is so ugly, isn't it? nt

[yardwork]

30. If you assume that Hillary invented attacks on Ted Kennedy, you haven't been paying attention.

Teddy Kennedy has been reviled for decades among many people. I don't agree with it, but it's the truth.

[jlake]

22. I doubt your sincerity.

This Hillary supporter thinks Ted Kennedy is a good endorsement that will have a positive effect - even if I disagree with him.

[sniffa]

24. Oh dear

Go ahead and say Chappaquiddick. You know you want to.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

26. Yes, Teddy has now dared to worship false gods

John Kerry, Robert Reich, Claire McCaskill have also become pariah because they now worship false gods. Anyone who doesn't worship Hillary Clinton is ex-communicated on the spot. It's an immediate transformation and it can only be restored by renouncing their heresy and accepting Hillary Clinton as their one true god.

This business of seeing everything and everyone by the way they see your candidate, on both sides, is getting absolutely ridiculous. It's turned politics into a religious experience.

[Drunken Irishman]

28. lol

[Beaverhausen]

32. I didn't know Teddy had a wide stance

[Armstead]

33. Um if you're going to "go there" I'd be careful about comparisons to the Clenis

[OmahaBlueDog]

34. Nice to see you all take contrary opinions calmly

You may disagree, but here's my point

We know Ted Kennedy for his fine work in the Senate. Outside of our friendly confines (read: the MSM), Ted is remembered for being the Senator who got away with murder, and for running around drunk with no pants (at his own house, granted) during the William Kennedy Smith debacle.

If Larry Craig were to endorse Mitt, McCain, or Huck, all would say "Thanks but no thanks" because of the MSM thinking on the topic.

All I'm saying is that I think a Ted Kennedy (as opposed to a Caroline or an RFK jr) has a downside.

Please ... resume name calling.

[MadBadger]

36. I dont see a downside in the democratic primary.

[K Gardner]

35. Go the fuck back to wherever you came from.

[jimshoes]

37. What a peurile comparison

the original post deserves an "86" gun salute.

[sunonmars]

38. The irony in all this

is that with Obama and his supporters anti-family dynasty, they get endorsed by the biggest family dynasty in the US, its total hilarity.

[MadBadger]

39. They didnt have a chance to have a fuckin dynasty.

[sunonmars]

42. What Rubbish

We've all heard the Kennedy's from the 50's right up to now.

Presidents, AG's, senators, congressmen, influential businessmen and woman, California governors wife.

Thats a political family dynasty, however you look at it.

[MadBadger]

44. One got to be president for three years.

THe other one couldnt even make it to the election.

[MonkeyFunk]

43. you've gotta be shitting me

jesus christ....
