And yet the Democrat Republic of Taxachusetts kept re-electing him until he finally died.
When I lived in Boston, I had a friendly ‘argument’ about voting for Ted Kennedy with a co-worker. He said he would be voting for Kennedy in the Dem Primary simply because Kennedy would do lots for Massachusetts if he were President. Then he said ‘you would vote for John Anderson because you used to live in Illinois, right?’. I said no. I thought it was a ridiculous reason to vote for someone. The Kennedys OWNED Massachusetts. I once saw Teddy marching in a ‘Rose’ Parade....a parade to honor his mother on her 100th birthday. He was sweating like a pig.....he shouldn’t have worn a light blue shirt that day.
