Ted Kennedy Tapes Video for Democratic Convention

Senator Edward Kennedy won't be in Denver for the Democratic Convention, but he taped a five minute video that will be shown.

He'll be missed by all and our best wishes go out to him for successful treatment so that he can attend the inauguration in person in January.

    Best wishes, of course. The showing of the video should be a very emotional moment at the convention.

    Godspeed to Teddy. (5.00 / 0) (#3)

    Teddy hasn't stopped thinking about the causes he holds dear.

    I also was moved by this video from the Pan Mass Challenge.

    Kerry rides for Teddy, talks about the day he came to the Senate floor for that Medicare vote.

    HRC supporters not upset with Ted? We got mad at everyone else who didn't support her. But Kennedy we forgave, because he is the best we ever had.

    many are upset... (5.00 / 1) (#6)

    but I also wish him a fast and lasting recovery.  The two aren't mutually exclusive.

    when his silence on the Senate floor has driven me to distraction. His choice of Obama over Clinton upset me greatly. But his physical condition forces me as I'm sure it does others to look at his overall performance with pleasure.
