That piece of shit got what he deserved, and is currently rotting in Hell!
In 1969, he was travelling in a car with a certain woman who was not his wife. He lost control. Car ended up completely submerged. Ted staggered out of the car..... and then staggered his ass home, while that poor woman needlessly drowned. He went home, consulted with some friends and advisors, and only after they worked out what sort os spin to use, only then (10 hours later) did he report the incident to the police.
He's responsible for that woman's death. But he was a liberal, and the National Organization of Women came to his defense; instead of denouncing him as the adulterous piece of shit that he was. Since he was politically on their side, he got a free pass for killing that woman. And to add further to the obscenity, he attempted to run for President in 1980. Thankfully, he fucked that up so badly, there was zero chance of a Presidency for him. Hell, his political career should have ended in 1969, and his selfish ass should have been tossed in prison for killing that woman!
Some of us are old enough to know what Ted Kennedy was really all about.
BTW, it was Chappaquiddick island, and her name was Mary Joe Kopechne.
