Apparently, Ted Kennedy made the announcement during happy hour at Shenanigans Bar.WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Sen. Edward Kennedy backed Sen. Barack Obama for president Monday, saying, "It is time again for a new generation of leadership."
"It is time now for Barack Obama," the Massachusetts senator and brother of the late President Kennedy added.
He stood with Obama, his son, Rep. Patrick Kennedy, and his niece, Caroline Kennedy, before a screaming capacity crowd of students at American University in Washington.
After Kennedy spoke, Obama told the boisterous crowed: "I know what your support means. I know the cherished place the Kennedy family holds in the hearts of the American people." (H/T - CNN)
That would be the cherished place in our hearts where plowing famous broads, becoming addicted to prescription drugs, (allegedly) raping women on the beach, and killing campaign staffers who couldn't swim, right?
Thanks Uncle Teddy, but I don't think your endorsement holds water. Heh.
