Poll question: What really happened at Chappaquiddick?

Edited on Sat Jul-11-09 03:03 PM by CTyankee

With the 40th anniversary of this event coming up on July 18th, I thought we could explore what DUers think really happened. I am old enough to have remembered the incident well, and how torn I was about what went on that night.
One theory at the time had it that Kennedy was not even in the car and Kopechne drove over the embankment into the water by accident. See http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,942138-2,00.html. I don't believe that Ted Kennedy "let her die" as the RW would have it; but I am not convinced that his story was completely true...
