According to several sources this is not only because Ted Kennedy suports Obama but because he is very upset at the way the Clinton's have been handling their campaign recently.

Kennedy Plans to Back Obama Over Clinton

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Senator Edward M. Kennedy intends to endorse the presidential candidacy of Senator Barack Obama during a rally on Monday in Washington, associates to both men confirmed, a decision that squarely pits one American political dynasty against another.

Wow. I just got this email from Senator Ted Kennedy:

re: Ted Kennedy Plans to Back Obama Over Clinton

Dear PalJoey,

Barack Obama inspires me.

That's why I'm about to take the stage with him here in Washington and endorse his campaign to become the next president of the United States.

It's that simple. Through Barack, I believe we will move beyond the politics of fear and personal destruction and unite our country with the politics of common purpose.

All Democrats in this race have strong ideas to address the challenges before our country. But Barack is the candidate who can inspire Americans to act and bring us together to achieve those goals -- an economy that works for everyone, health care for all, and at long last ending the war in Iraq and bringing our troops home.

Join me and become part of the Obama campaign today:

www.democraticmajority.com/page/m/57b93ce508097e90/GJvnYr/VEsE/

I remember another leader who inspired the nation, especially our youth, to fulfill a promise of change. Those inspired young people marched, sat in at lunch counters, protested the war in Vietnam and served honorably in that war even when they opposed it.

That leader challenged them to ask what they could do for their country and, together, they changed the world.

So in the words of that leader, John Kennedy: "The world is changing. The old ways will not do... It is time for a new generation of leadership."

I have found that next generation of American leadership in Barack Obama.

Take a moment to join his campaign:

www.democraticmajority.com/page/m/57b93ce508097e90/GJvnYr/VEsE/

I respect the strength, the work and dedication of two other Democrats still in the race, Hillary Clinton and John Edwards. They are my friends; they have been my colleagues in the Senate. Whoever is our nominee will have my enthusiastic support.

But I believe there is one candidate whose extraordinary gifts of leadership and character match the extraordinary demands of this moment in history.

Barack will be a president who refuses to be trapped in the patterns of the past. He sees the world clearly without being cynical. He fights for the causes he believes in -- but refuses to demonize those who hold a different view. He's tough-minded, but he also has an uncommon capacity to appeal to "the better angels of our nature."

In Barack Obama, I see not just the audacity, but the possibility of hope for the America that is yet to be.

I love this country. I believe in the bright light of hope and possibility. I always have, even in the darkest hours. I know what America can achieve. I've seen it. I've lived it -- and with Barack Obama, we can do it again.

Sincerely,

re: Ted Kennedy Plans to Back Obama Over Clinton

Senator Edward M. Kennedy

That's his formal salutation. Hand written notes are addressed as "Dear PJ,".

I glanced at the thread title too quickly and read it as "Ted Kennedy Plans to Back Over Clinton". I guess, in a sense, he did.

"He did - he ran over her, backed up so he could do it again"

And then, put her in the car and drove off a bridge.

Yes, you've been away recently.

As a way of preparing us for the relentless negative campaign the Republicans will prosecute against Obama if he is the Democratic candidate, PapaLovesMambo has elected to use the middle name of the distinguished senator from Illinois to suggest that he is a Black Muslim Terrorist.

Hence, "Hussein" or "Husseinster," in the diminutive.

i prefer the term persecute, m'self.

sleeper agent, pj, not a terrorist.

and just so you know, i also refer to him as osama and elegant fingers and a few other terms that got threads deleted as broadwayworld is solidly behind the black one as opposed to the white one or the blonde one.

Blonde (with an E) is female, if that helps, PJ.

Yes, but if Papa thinks Edwards is gay, might that not be a campy slur?

Aw, c'mon Ted! Easy, breezy, beautiful cover girl!


"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

i do not think edwards is gay. on the contrary, i'm pretty sure he fathered a child with an ann coulter-looking documentarian while liz was getting chemo.

think mod squad, pj.

lil missed the whole part where we went into ron's sordid racist/anti-smitic/conspiracy theorist past. the kinda racism that would make robert byrd blush.

i was not the one who referred to her as the vagina. i merely repeated a term than had already been introduced by another.

i call the former pow the angry man, lil. the drag queen is the candidate formerly known as the combover. the cult member is mutt. the jesus freak, well, i just call him huck because really, unless you're talking twain, there's really no good connotation to that word.

the senator from ny is the carpet bagger (an oldie but a goodie) and the populist with the varying degree of twang is and will forever be the breck girl to me.

these terms vary with the way the wind blows or how a thread seems to be going. sometimes it's just black white blonde silver shiny pudgy plastic and crazy.
