Kennedy spurned Hillary over husband's 'misleading' statements, racial remarks

Liberal lion Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-MA) will announce his support for Illinois senator Barack Obama (D-IL) in Washington today, after a heated behind-the-scenes battle for his endorsement.

Media pundits will almost certainly play up the endorsement by the only remaining son of Joseph Kennedy, who fathered John Fitzgerald and Robert Kennedy. His endorsement follows a protracted backroom discussion between Kennedy and the Clinton campaign.

Clinton aides and allies had pressed hard to keep Kennedy neutral until after the Democratic Party had a nominee, according to a Monday report by Jeff Zeleny and Carl Hulse in the New York Times.

"But Mr. Kennedy had become increasingly disenchanted with the tone of the Clinton campaign, aides" told Zeleny and Hulse. "He and former President Bill Clinton had a heated telephone exchange earlier this month over what Mr. Kennedy considered misleading statements by Mr. Clinton about Mr. Obama, as well as his injection of race into the campaign."

1. Ohh!excuse me

It's not OK for Bill/Hill to speak out about anything, but it's OK if Obama plays the race card.

3. Of course not. By all means...

...he should keep on getting purple faced, wagging his finger, and taking kidney shots. The Obama campaign appreciates the help of any citizen that is willing to help him win! :)
