| I've been pulling the lever for Ted my whole life. |

I feel as if the north star has fallen out of the sky. He was a point in the cosmos I set my compass by.
My father worked on JFK's house campaign in '48 My father( a navy man) spent the rest of his life supporting the Kennedy's He taught me to, and why I should, and I have
years later when we were discussing the Kennedy's I said you&dad were with him cause Jack was navy guy right? she said no you&dad were with him cause he was an democrat from our district? she said no Irish? no Catholic? no.
they were with him cause Jack was an FDR democrat. I guess I am too Ted sure was.
somehow through him I felt connected to my father, even though both my parents have been dead for decades. dad was always there with me in the voting booth sounds crazy huh?
I'll miss you Ted God bless you

I've lived in MA all of my 46 years, so Ted started representing me before I was even born.
Bye Uncle Teddy... :cry:
