3. Yep
It's a travesty to see things go this way. Coakley had better not ever try to run for office again after this epic debacle.

9. Oh! I hope not!
It's meant in all sincerity!

Born and bred in Lexington... marched in the Patriots Day parade as a Brownie back in.... '63? '64?

12. I think you are right. the way this electionw as handled was a total insult to
Sen Kennedy, his memory and the battle he fought for his 47 years in Congress.

13. A Toast and a Video that was just completed on his life's work..
"THE CAUSE OF KENNEDY'S LIFE.... A source on the Hill emails this morning to let me know about this video, put together a few days ago, about Ted Kennedy and his decades of work to get a health care reform bill signed into law. Occasionally, some of the web videos put together by congressional offices are a little weak and have poor production values, but this one is one of the best I've seen."

16. They are trying to replace him with someone that will try to kill
his dream.

That's totally sad.

But hey......here's to Teddy! :toast:
