Erickson on CNN: It's Ted Kennedy's fault for not retiring & "wanting to be a martyr"
The irony here though, is that Obama's unicorn of hope and change is dying under Ted Kennedy...that if Ted Kennedy had decided to resign or retire when he found just out how bad his health was, instead of being wanting to be a martyr for the cause, the Democrats wouldn't be in this position. - Erick Erickson, editor of "Red State" blog

Truly a low human being, aren't you, Mr. Erickson?

2. Oh please. It isn't Kennedy's fault
Almost any Democrat with a pulse would have been expected to win that seat...

...and more than one without a pulse.

There's plenty of blame to go around, but Kennedy doesn't deserve any of it.

3. The only reason that DNA voisd can sleep at night is that he lacks
any soul whatsoever.

6. Kennedy couldn't retire.
He had too much work left to do. What a dumbass this Erick Erickson is.

What the hell kind of name is "Erick Erickson" anyway? Were his parents too stupid to come up with a first name for him?

7. While not the time to bring it up nor very delicately put, I admit I have wondered -
- if things would have been different had Teddy resigned and then mentored and thrown his personal support behind a candidate while he was still able to do so. Hindsight is 20/20 but I doubt I'm the only one wondering that right now.
