  •  I generally like Kennedy, but.. (0+ / 0-)

    we could use some new blood there.

    I voted for him a couple of times. Still, 50 years is a long time for one person to hold office - it's bound to cause abuse-of-authority and political stagnation even in the best of circumstances.  And it's not as if the seat is going to go to the GOP.

    A nation of sheep will surely beget a government of wolves.

    •  Ted Kennedy (3+ / 0-)

      is still among the most liberal members in congress.  He's like a touchstone to remind us all what progressivism really means.  He's someone who really understand what the principles were that FDR gave to this country and our party.

      His replacement just won't be the same.  And certainly it shouldn't be Marty Meehan.
