Whatever your estimation of the political powers of Ted Kennedy you cannot say he isn't in some ways potent. On the day he endorses Barack Obama a poll is released in Massachusetts showing Hillary Clinton with a six point lead.
But that poll was before the full effect of the Kennedy magic could be felt! Yesterday the first poll after the Kennedy announcement showed Clinton with a 24 point lead. Yikes!! And they say McCain's New York Times endorsement was the kiss of death!
Hmm...maybe the claim that you represent "change" gets undermined when you embrace the oldest of the old guard.
Just a thought.
