My Man Teddy

Don’t we all love Teddy Kennedy? But I want to start off by asking another question.

Why the hell did Caroline Kennedy get a standing ovation when she came out to speak? I know she revolutionized the Democratic Party in the 60’s, wait that was her Dad.

Caroline doesn’t deserve such admiration. Back to the point, Ted has lived a live of accomplishments that can not be compared to any other politician (though Nancy Pelosi likes to think she can). He has revolutionized the power the Senate holds and he has flourished into the best politician in the Kennedy family tree. No matter what obstacle is thrown his way (George Bush) he can tackle it face on and recently that was seen with his cancer. When I watched the beautiful video tribute before his speech I began to cry. The fact that he came to Denver when it was advised of him not to because of his health really states what kind of man he is. His speech was eloquent and passionate with the right amount of force. He stole the night away…yes that include you Michelle Obama.
