Pam, I can't take credit for that one.  I got it from my father, a
Dixie-crat who felt that the Kennedy's ruined the party--a stance made even
stronger by his hero-worship of FDR and the WPA, NRA, etc.  My grandfather
kept his family alive by building post offices throughout the Deep South for
$1/day as a WPA carpenter.  Anyway, Daddy has an old wheeze, "They should
never have shot Jack or Bobby in the '60s--they should have got Rose and
that old ^$$%!!, Joe in the '20s."

The Old Man has softened quite a bit in his politics in the last few years,
though he's never forgiven Kennedy and Johnson for sending him to watch his
friends die for naught South East Asia.

Being on the liberalish side politically, I like much of Ted's politics -
but your comment made me chuckle. :)
