I love Ted Kennedy
Not in a carnal sense, but he is a Real Democrat.

Just had to say that watching him grill Roberts on C-Span. With a Party filled with Teds and Howards, and John Conyers, and others who the fire and passion of real liberalism we could take back this country.

2. He's my Senator too
I realized how much I appreciated him when I called his office at the time of the Iraq War vote. The staff person said with no hesitation or prevarication that Kennedy was going to vote No.

3. Ted Kennedy rocks my socks. He's a personal hero of mine.
He's done a lot of really excellent things for government in his day. What I love most lately are the pictures of Kennedy and Kerry, when Kerry is speaking or presenting at events. It's so sweet to see Kennedy hovering behind JK, looking protective.

6. Kennedy Questions
Perhaps Senator Kennedy asked some great questions but the way he kept interrupting certainly made Roberts look more capable and more inteligent..Dont believe Kennedy accomplished his goal of putting Roberts at any disadvantage..

10. I disagree
Kennedy was not going to swallow prefabricated bullshit.

You don't think republicans get aggressive and interrupt?
