Chappaquiddick Anniversary
It seems appropriate to remind everyone that today is the 36th anniversary of the night that a drunk Senator Ted Kennedy drove off the little wooden bridge on Chappaquiddick Island, abandoned poor Mary Jo Kopecne, swam away to save his career, and left her to drown in the murky waters off Martha's Vineyard. He "beat the rap," of course, went on television to tearfully throw himself on the tender mercies of Massachusetts voters, and has been re-elected over and over by them and now enjoys the status of a Democratic Party icon. Mary Jo is still dead.
