any word yet on who's planning to throw their hats in the ring for the special election?
and oh, internet, you have failed me - i cannot find a copy of the national lampoon "if ted kennedy was driving one of these" ad with the vw beetle.
someone on metafilter found a copy: http://www.jasoncoleman.com/Media/Images/tedvwsmall.jpg
(more seriously, RIP kennedy. bad date, but good senator. those will be some big shoes to fill.)

It must feel like they've lost their dad a second time. I hadn't realize that Kennedy and my dad were the same age. (Funny, I don't think of 77 as old anymore.)
