Are you denying the Kennedys are the Dems' royal family?

After Bobby died Teddy was constantly written about as "The Last Kennedy" or "The Last Brother"-- I think there may even have been a book w/ that latter title.

Even after Chappaquiddick there were many Dems loyal to him. While the Mudd interview hurt he still won the NY Dem primary in 1980 (by something like 20 points)

Remember I said the Dem nom not the gen election. Although remember the Obama principle: no matter how radical you are if you're the nominee you already have 40% of the electorate sewn up. Politics is played between the 40 yd lines.
