Ted Kennedy endorsing Obama
By Susan Milligan
Globe staff
WASHINGTON -- Senator Edward M. Kennedy will endorse Barack Obama for president tomorrow, breaking his year-long neutrality to send a powerful signal of where the legendary Massachusetts Democrat sees the party going -- and who he thinks is best to lead it.
Kennedy confidantes told the Globe today that the Bay State's senior senator will appear with Obama and Kennedy's niece, Caroline Kennedy, at a morning rally at American University in Washington tomorrow to announce his support.
That will be a potentially significant boost for Obama as he heads into a series of critical primaries on Super Tuesday, Feb. 5.
Kennedy believes Obama can ``transcend race'' and bring unity to the country, a Kennedy associate told the Globe. Kennedy was also impressed by Obama's deep involvement last year in the bipartisan effort to craft legislation on immigration reform, a politically touchy subject the other presidential candidates avoided, the associate said.
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Hitlery will not be amused. Heh.

having the most liberal member of congress and one of the most polarizing figures in american politics strutting his girth all over the country on your behalf certainly isn't going to do him much good with the moderates and republicans that he is constantly saying he is trying to convert.

Teddy despises the Clintons along with Gore, Kerry & Dean; they are trying to derail the Queen.

gore lost in 2000 because bildo couldn't keep it in his pants. the clintons sent wesley clark into the 2004 primariues just to draw anti-war votes from howard dean, and they all but ignored kerry's candidacy. I suppose it would take a while to get past that.
not sure what they did to the senior senator from au bar.

What scares me is that Barackstar is trying to ride JFK's coattails. Caroline Kennedy is endorsing him and signing his praises, Drunk Uncle Teddy is endorsing him....the media is trying to stick him in the JFK mold....let's hope the rest of America isn't fooled.

why democrats want to imitate such a mediocrity is beyond me. other than nail marilyn monroe, he accomplished nothing noteworthy in his presidency.

Many of them think the Peanut farmer was building houses when he was President rather than screwing up everything he touched.
