My wife and I were watching tv news last night and this morning, and it was pretty much nonstop Ted Kennedy stuff. We both had the same reaction - the man is still alive, getting treatment - why are they running what in effect are obituaries? It's macabre and distasteful. He has time on this earth yet, they shouldn't treat him like he's dead. I would imagine he'll get the best medical care available, and will be kept as comfortable as he can, and I hope he can retain his dignity (no small matter for a sick elderly person). But sakes alive, he's not dead yet.
Last time I gave him more than a couple seconds' thought was when I voted for him for Pres in the NY primary in 1980.
