Ted Kennedy Dead at 77

Senator Edward Kennedy, the patriarch of the mythical Kennedy family and the conscience of the Democrat party died late last night from brain cancer that he had been battling since last year.
Undoubtedly there will be months of eulogies on the major network news programs and there will be not-so-nice "tributes" about the man on the internet, no matter what you thought of the man personally or of his political policies and scandals (and there were many, some unforgivable) he was respected on both sides of the isle and helped a lot of people throughout his career.

Of course there will always be this, from ABC, no less.

Rest in peace, Teddy.
