1. In a couple of weeks, no one will care

No matter who becomes the nominee.

It isn't that Teddy is irrelevant -- it's that memory is short.

--p!

4. there are really only a couple of assholes from all camps posting crap on DU.

It's interesting.

I don't mean people slinging the usual back and forth normal stuff.
I mean people posting really offensive or intentionally inflammatory stuff.

12. calling Clintons "racist" is not freeper hate?

how about calling them cheats, and liars, republicans, Billary, and ALL the slurs anti-clintonites throw at Bill and Hillary, who have both done more for communities of ALL colors and religions than Barack Obama. To be honest, I respect Obama, and like him a lot, but his campaign is all talk to which he canot back anything up with real legislation besides one ethics bill. The stuff I hear about Bill and Hillary here sound like the Rush Limbaugh discussion board. In honesty, I'm very dissapointed with Ted. He has no real reason other than to get in headlines to grandstand for a candidate who has one fifth of the experience his brother had when running in 1960

14. your post was disgusting . that's why it's gone.

And you've posted other revolting very unprogressive things.

You don't have a fucking clue as to why Teddy endorsed Obama, but he sure doesn't have any need to grandstand, as you put it.

6. Not to sure what he has to squander.

Sadly, I bet a whole lot of younger folks have learned a new word the past three days - Chappaquiddick.

7. His reputation is already solidly fixed in the minds of the freepers.

Does he matter that much to the Dem voters outside Mass anymore?

10. Ted Kennedy is hated by the middle of this country.

He will not be an asset in the fall election, but rather a liability.

13. Barack Obama: "The Ted Kennedy candidate"

with liberals like us, thats nice (if he is the nominee), but with America, he is chiefly known for Chappaquiddick. sadly, what a waste of a possible presidential run
