Ted Kennedy and the Kennedy family has put it's support behind Barrack Obama this morning. This could be seen as a major slap to the Clinton campaign. We'll probably be seeing less of Bill now.
agree. and for hillary to respond in that manner would be wise. in my experience, especially when discussing politics with my republican friends (and yes, i have some), they looooooooooove to fixate on and pick apart bill's presidency every time his name comes up. (not that it's good or bad, just an observation.) i honestly think he's hurting her more than he's helping her...not that i support her anyway.

the kennedys don't wield the kind of power and influence they once did. i think this was a purely psychological manoeuver geared toward people of a certain age, because kennedys endorsing obama recalls the "camelot" days in the white house, and therefore seeks to evoke that same type of sentiment around obama which many people seem to feel.
as far as the state of the union address...not even knowing it was his last one was motivation enough to make me watch the freekin' thing. i get so angry listening to that man anymore that it isn't even worth it for me. i just end up cussing like patrick dempsey without hair product, eatng TUMS like they're M&M's, and throwing things at the TV with blessedly bad aim.
