The Liberal Lion has died.


Today I woke up, got some cereal, kissed Keith as he left for work, turned on the news and saw the headlines. U.S. Senator Ted Kennedy dies at 77. I knew he was battling a brain tumor... and just last week he made the move to secure whoever would take his place (in the Senate) once he was gone... but I didn't think that he was this close to the end. There are so many things that I want to thank him for. For example, the right to vote at age 18. He wrote so many bills that passed into law. Such a huge part of our government. Such a sad day. What a legend.
