Ted Kennedy is dead

This morning, he passed away at the age of 77. He died of Brain Cancer.

I hope to comment on the ramifications of this for the passage of health care later, but it's very important. He's fought that fight for a long time.

I do not know enough about him to know exactly what his legacy was, aside from the fact that when I played for the red team, I hated the man.

The closest thing the United States may ever have to a royal family appears to be ending, barring a re-emergence of Caroline or another similar event.
