But try as Carr might, he’s fighting a losing battle

Really? Ted the Swimmer isn't gonna live forever. No point having loathing for a guy who is dead.

I've noticed a concerted effort by the left lately to rehabilitate the Swimmer by downplaying Chapaquiddick. It's one of the sorriest spectacles I've seen, frankly - but, then again, the left has shown time and time again that it doesn't have any shame.

If Ted Kennedy drove a Volkswagen, he'd be President today

It floats.

The way our body is built, we'd be surprised if it didn't. The sheet of flat steel that goes underneath every Volkswagen keeps out water, as well as dirt and salt and other nasty things that can eat away at the underside of a car. So it's watertight at the bottom. And everybody knows it's easier to shut the door on a Volkswagen after you've rolled down the window a little.

That proves it's practically airtight on top. If it was a boat, we could call it the Water Bug. But it's not a boat, it's a car.

And, like Mary Jo Kopechne, it's only 99 and 44/100 percent pure. So it won't stay afloat forever. Just long enough. Poor Teddy. If he'd been smart enough to buy a Volkswagen, he never would have gotten into hot water.

Well, for my part, there are a number of graves I am looking forward to dancing upon, and his is just one.
